The San Francisco Giants have the best record in the league for a reason. However, most teams in this position are usually led by a MVP candidate, yet the Giants likely won’t have any player finish in the top-3, or even top-5 in MVP voting this season. Instead, a large part of their success has come from an impressive amount of contributions from less distinguished players. Whether it’s Donovan Solano’s game-tying shot or even Kevin Gausman’s walk-off RBI, someone always rises to the occasion for San Fran.
The Giants have the most players (10) with 10+ HR among any MLB team this year, highlighting their well-balanced lineup. From top to bottom, they really have no weaknesses and possess one of the best benches in baseball. LaMonte Wade is a perfect representation of this 2021 Giants team. A completely unheralded player six months ago who is now hitting cleanup and playing at a high level for the MLB’s No.1 team. The Giants have exceeded all expectations in 2021 and it’s because of their extreme balance.
