Welcome to the INSIDE CHINA BASIN Baseball Podcast

Updated 3 times a week on TheSportsVirus.com!

Baseball writer Doug Padilla joins us from Los Angeles to talk about the Giants/Dodgers series this weekend.

Padilla gave The Sports Virus his thoughts about a possible Giants strategy to be competitive in 2018: “…What model do you want to choose? Does the Cubs model make sense? Probably not. Not a franchise like the Giants. The Dodgers model seems to make more sense, maybe adding a key component here and there. Count on guys to rebound to more of their norms and to fill in holes…Even if they roll the same guys out there next year they wouldn’t be this team, they would be better, even a year older. I think we could safely assume that. I think it would make sense to maybe get a little younger in some spots.”
