As of the current season, the San Francisco Giants are leading the competitive National League West, which is a surprising turn of events for many, including fans. The author humorously reflects on how, in past discussions about the team's performance, they attributed the current success to the 'Buster Posey effect.' Though Posey retired in 2021, his legacy and presence continue to resonate with the team. This lighthearted commentary draws connections between past performances and current victories, prompting fans to speculate on the factors contributing to the Giants' success.
"If you had told me in February that this was where they would be even just a month into the season, I would have laughed at you."
"It's been kind of a running joke ever since that one should not embarrass themselves in front of Posey."
"Now, am I saying that that is officially why the team is doing well this season, now that Posey is running the whole show? Officially? No."
"This was still in effect back in the 2022 season, the year after Posey announced his retirement."
