The San Francisco Giants already made one high-profile extension during the 2023 season, agreeing to terms on a deal with Logan Webb that tacked on three more years to the three years he was already under club control. When it comes to J.D. Davis, LaMonte Wade Jr., and Thairo Estrada, should the Giants consider doing the same thing? Davis is two years from free agency, Wade is three years away, and Estrada is four years away. So the most urgent case, if they view him as a big part of their future, would be with Davis. It's also worth asking whether Casey Schmitt, Patrick Bailey, or any other prospects (like Kyle Harrison, Luis Matos, and/or Marco Luciano should be under consideration for extensions.

Among the other mailbag questions addressed on today's episode: If Bailey shows he’s capable to stay up in the majors, do you think Joey Bart gets traded? How excited should we be about Luis Matos, as he looks to be close? If Matos earns a promotion to the big leagues, who does he replace? Or is his only path this year through injury? How will the Giants handle it if Brandon Crawford continues to struggle so badly, even when given time off and platooned? Is it possible that he might be DFA'd midseason if these issues at the plate keep up? What do you think the chances are of Crawford returning next season, seeing how he’s on the Posey Plan of 2 on, 1 off?
