Willson Contreras A Fit For The Giants?

While Chicago Cubs catcher Willson Contreras doesn't appear to be a trade fit for the Houston Astros -- they revere the defensive work of Martin Maldonado -- he would make particular sense for the San Francisco Giants, who recently demoted Joey Bart. Curt Casali has never played 90 games in a major league season, and […]
