Few predicted the Giants would be a serious threat in the NL Wild Card race at the start of the season, much less to win the NL West. Among the doubters were Vegas oddsmakers, who set San Francisco’s preseason win total at 75.5. Six months removed from that prediction, they have surpassed that total by 28 and counting, with the likelihood of adding to it with four games left. 

Just days after breaking their record for home runs in a season, their 104 wins means this Giants roster has set a new San Francisco record and has the entire city hoping for a deep postseason run. Despite Brandon Belt‘s season-ending injury earlier this week, the Giants have seldom looked better since moving to the Bay in 1958.

  • The Giants set a franchise record for Wins (104) in a season since moving to San Francisco in 1958
  • SF Giants became the 1st MLB team to reach 100 wins during a season for the 1st time since 1913
  • Giants already broke their franchise record of most HR (236) in a season earlier this week
 
Odds vs. ARI: SF -270 (Spread -1.5)

THIS IS THE BEST REGULAR SEASON SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS TEAM EVER

Few, if any, people will claim that this 2021 Giants team are the most talented squad in their team’s history, but this group has played the most consistently good ball in the San Francisco era. They will finish the season having never lost more than 10 games in a month, an incredible feat considering the usual ups and downs of a long season. They’re also on pace to break the all-time franchise’s single-season record of Wins if they win three of their last four games with the San Francisco record now in the books.
