I'll take it but the greedy me (as others have mentioned), wants us to lose so we get the early pick in other rounds as well. That 1st pick in the 2nd round is a gold mine.

I agree but ultimately just ensuring us Mendoza will make me happy

I want us guaranteed to get Mendoza so hoping for a Giants win. I don't trust this team to not screw it up on the last game.

scuttlebutt but there is growing pressure for them to look into it. Heard a couple teams were not happy with the Crosby scrub and how we were playing.

I don't trust this team to do the right thing even if they secure the first pick.

Seems nearly impossible to prove. It’s not like they benched Max and Bowers and Jeanty mid season with no injury history.

Lots of teams let their star players begin recovery once the season is over and Max and Bowers have been dinged up throughout the year with Max reportedly needing surgery.

I just want Jeanty to come down with the flu Saturday and we are nearly set

Unfortunately, I think a lot of Giants players are sick. Hopefully they IV it up and are good to go.

Doesn’t 1st and 2nd pick have to alternate in each round?

For what it's worth, Arizona just shut down Harrison Jr. for the rest of season.
