HIDDEN GEM ALERT: Cody Ponce and his CONNECTION to San Francisco | Evaluating Giants' UNTOUCHABLES

Could Cody Ponce be the most underrated move the Giants make this offseason? Today we break down Jeff Passan’s report on Ponce’s surge in the KBO, how he rebuilt his body, added velocity, developed a plus splitter, and why he might be the next Merrill Kelly instead of the next failed returnee. We look at how his profile fits San Francisco’s pitching philosophy and why the Giants could sign him and still chase someone like Imai or Shota Imanaga. We also revisit the Heliot Ramos conversation after viewer feedback — not to pile on Ramos, but to explain why he naturally comes up when discussing potential trades and roster upgrades. Plus, with Buster Posey openly saying the outfield “has to be better,” we examine whether players like Ramos, Jung Hoo Lee, Drew Gilbert, and more should be considered untouchable… or movable in a pitching-heavy offseason. And we finish with which Giants actually should be off the table heading into winter. Big episode with pitching intrigue, outfield questions, and some real talk about building a contender.0:00 Bargain with Cody Ponce?11:57 Addressing Heliot Ramos convo21:03 Evaluating UntouchablesFollow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…🎧 https://lockedonpodcasts.com/podcasts/locked-on-san-francisco-giants/Locked On MLB League-Wide: Every Team, Prospects & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnMLB#SFGiants #FirstListen #Giants #sanfranciscogiants #sanfrancisco #baseball #mlb #tennesseebaseball #tonyvitello #freeagency #mlbfreeagency #mlbtraderumors #japanesebaseball #kboSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!GametimeDownload the Gametime app, create an account, and use code LOCKEDONMLB for $20 off your first purchase.
