Is Rafael Devers a *true* Giant? Would people have an emotional response if he's off the team? Willard and Dibs discuss, along with breaking down why the Giants seem to be annulling their prior commitments.

In Hour 4, Willard and Dibs talk about the recent report by ESPN baseball writer Buster Olney regarding the availability of a few of the Giants' high-paid cornerstones -- Rafael Devers, Willy Adames and Matt Chapman. 

In Hour 1 of Willard & Dibs, Mark Willard and Dan Dibley discuss another strong showing at Oracle Park this weekend in terms of attendance and fan atmosphere. What could the Giants do to lose that support from the fans? They still seem to be showing up regardless. They also propose the question of if the Giants are actually trying to win. Later, they revisit the Rafael Devers trade on the one-year anniversary of the deal.

Once upon a time, Willy Adames, Matt Chapman and Rafael Devers represented a new era for the San Francisco Giants - a group with pedigree that Giants fans had long wished for. However, recent reports indicate that they'd listen on those players at the upcoming MLB trade deadline. What happened?

Yeah, Rafael Devers is the long-tenured veteran, but when will Bryce Eldridge have a say on when he wants to play more first base? or does he want that? Willard and Dibs continue breaking down the reporting of the Giants' willingness to listen on several of their high-priced franchise cornerstones
