SF Giants Targeting Jackie Bradley, Jr. In Trade Talks
While they've been mentioned in the Giancarlo Stanton Sweepstakes, the San Francisco Giants really don't have the prospects or financial props to swing that deal. So, multiple reports are suggesting they may be setting their sights on another outfielder—namely, Boston's Jackie Bradley, Jr. While JBJ is an elite defender in CF, his offensive production in 2017 dropped-off sharply from his 2016 numbers (26 HRs in 2016; 17 in 2017). It's unclear who San Francisco would make available in a trade for JBJ, but Boston could be looking for bullpen and back-up infield help. Stay tuned!
