Buster Posey’s Giants don’t look like Buster Posey’s Giants

Connor Grossman and Kerry Crowley are back for Giants Postcards’ first episode of 2026 — and the Giants are already confusing them. Reports suggest San Francisco is aggressively pursuing a second baseman in the trade market, which leads to a bigger question: why there, and not where the Giants actually seem thin?

Connor and Kerry dig into how far the Giants have drifted from the “pitching and defense” identity that has defined winning baseball in San Francisco. They also take stock of a rotation built on durability questions, a bullpen full of “guys,” and how the Giants' fortunes have turned in Latin America.

The conversation then turns to football—and why being a 49ers fan right now only makes a decade of Giants .500 baseball feel more frustrating.

Listen up:
