Hello and happy Tuesday.
The San Francisco Giants are creeping frighteningly close to having pitchers and catchers report. We still don’t know who all will be on the roster for the 2021 season — or if the 2021 season will happen as intended — but it’s never too early for predictions.
Which is why I want to hear all about what you think will happen in the 2032 season.
Just kidding. Let’s stick with 2021 before something bad happens.
Here’s who I think will lead the Giants in their major statistical categories in 2021:
Batting average: Austin Slater
On-base percentage: Brandon Belt
Slugging percentage: Brandon Belt
Home runs: Mike Yastrzemski
RBI: Yaisel Puig Evan Longoria
Stolen bases: Mauricio Dubón
Wins: Kevin Gausman
Innings pitched: Johnny Cueto
Starter ERA: Kevin Gausman
Reliever ERA: Jarlin García
Saves: Reyes Moronta
Defensive WAR: Buster Posey
Offensive WAR: Mike Yastrzemski
Pitcher WAR: Kevin Gausman
Manager WAR: Gabe Kapler
