Buster Posey would have to have an extraordinary year for the Giants to justify optioning a $22 million contract on a 36 year old catcher. Hell, that's 15% of the Giants payroll, Baby! After his 2019 surgery and sitting out a year, people are wondering if he still has his mojo. I believe the best we can expect is just an average year, but I'll enjoy it.
