Can Jerar Encarnacion's bat help redefine the San Francisco Giants' season? With 19 home runs in just 26 games in the Mexican League last year, plus a standout performance in Triple-A before a brief stint in the majors with excellent expected numbers, Encarnacion's potential impact is a hot topic. The SF Giants, known for their strategic roster moves, are eyeing breakout performances from players like Encarnacion, Tyler Fitzgerald—who is transitioning to second base—and others like Christian Koss, whose defensive prowess is turning heads.

Host Ben Kaspick explores how these players, acquired under the leadership of former president of baseball operations Farhan Zaidi, could shape the Giants' future. With insights from Buster Posey and praise from Matt Chapman, the episode dives into the Giants' evolving strategy and defensive focus.

Will these changes lead to a successful season? Tune in to discover how the Giants are positioning themselves for success and what it means for their fans.
