    Buster Posey's Legacy, Devers & Mayer's Fenway Return & Giants' Rotation Arms | Thompson 2 Clark

    In this episode of Thompson 2 Clark, Brad Evans and Garrett Gonzales dig into Brittany Ghiroli's deep-dive on Buster Posey's Giants legacy — the Athletic piece examining how Posey's front-office struggles are putting his playing legacy on the line. They preview a loaded weekend at Fenway Park, where Rafael Devers and Marcelo Mayer both return to Boston for the first time since being traded, and break down what kind of reception each should expect. They close with a look at the Giants' next wave of pitching, with Matt "Tugboat" Wilkinson getting the call to the majors and joining Blade Tidwell and Carson Whisenhunt in the mix for rotation spots — and whether any of the three sticks as a long-term piece of the rotation.
