What will the corresponding move be?

And who will close games now?
I would say it will be Jo Jo or Maton
Hopefully they’re gone too; then it would be O’Brien
So you are saying we don't really need a closer? Well we haven't had nothing to close out much in the month of July

I mean maybe Chaim bloom advised and if that’s the case, then I’ll take a wait and see approach but that return seems a little light considering what the giants got for a middle reliever. And yes im wearing my orange colored glasses.

The front office change can’t happen fast enough. Baez could work out in 2027 or 2028. They likely received no pitching help.

Kind of surprised we didn't get a better offer from Toronto

I don't really understand why we would really want Jesus Baez, a short middle IF, even though he's ranked in the Mets' top 10. And his batting#'s on Baseball Reference don't really jump out.
At least Nate Dohm and Frank Elissalt appear to be decent arms, they're tall and have good strikeout rates so far in the minors

Closer by committee and it depends on who is still here after the deadline tomorrow.

Granillo, Graceffo, Svanson will all get chances to close out games I am sure.

So the Giants got two 45ish guys and an above average major league reliever while we got two 35+ guys and a 40+ guy.

Some of that is proximity to the majors but it feels like SF got the better haul.
