My guest on this week’s pod is Marc Delucchi who covers the SF Giants and their farm system for Giants Baseball Insider, a Fan Nation site. Marc and I talk about the Giants’ recent draft haul and then dive into the stories of the first half of the season on the farm. We get into how wrong we were about Patrick Bailey, the joy of watching Luis Matos, and many of the pleasant surprises of the first half of the season.
