On deadline day, the Giants are reportedly ready to pivot and potentially cash in on the club's most valuable asset: orange and black pitchers, a group headlined by Madison Bumgarner and Will Smith.
Bob Nightengale of USA Today detailed just how fluid, and complictated, the sitation is as it relates to Bumgarner:
The #SFGiants say its too close of a call this morning to know whether Madison Bumgarner is staying or going. They continue to listen to offers. They have such respect for Bumgarner, he could be brought in as part of the conversation as well.
