The San Francisco Giants are in the midst of a modern day baseball dynasty, winning their third World Series title in five years in 2014. In a thrilling seven-game series with the Kansas City Royals, World Series MVP Madison Bumgarner had an historic effort on the mound to cement himself and his team in the history books.
The Giants bring back a very similar roster to 2014, but with the heart and soul of the offense missing, losing Pablo Sandoval to the Boston Red Sox through free agency. Sandoval won three World Series with the Giants and was the World Series MVP in 2012. He will be missed, but the Giants are built around pitching and defense, a strategy that has proven to work given their recent track record.
