Ive been a long time fan, going back to the windy days at Candlestick and cant remember a worse team/situation. Statistically, there have been worse offenses in the past for example, but if you look at the franchise as a whole, has there been worse?

Last place record with dubious achievements, like not sweeping a team until late June or not overcoming deficits after 6 innings.

Lots of bloated, almost unmovable, under performing contracts

Horrific pitching outside of Webb

A bumbling rookie manager, who just keeps getting worse. Who may be complicit in the actions of bad actors on the team

A GM who’s biggest claim to fame at the moment is having a brother who’s also a GM…for the Angels (Hmmmm brother GM’s of both last place teams in the NL and AL)

An ownership group so concerned with squeezing every penny out of everything, that it has led to one of the worst stadium experiences in baseball. expensive tickets, terrible food, bare minimum promotions that have been limited to so few that it’s near impossible to get one if you don’t line up HOURS before gametime. Even then, the scalpers get to them first.

Not to mention that this ownership group is a real estate investment group FIRST, which takes priority at the expense of the product on the field

And last but certainly not least, an environment of hate has been allowed to fester in the clubhouse. I loved how the Giants were a place that was welcoming to all. but now it’s just another instance in this country of an organization that’s actively promoting division and bigotry.

There are silver linings. We have Eldridge and JHL, coupled with a rising farm that seems to be in the upper half of MLB franchises.

But from ownership on down, has there been a worse total package example of this franchise in this team’s history?

I don’t think so
