Look, we know, J.T.'s numbers were never really that great. And he was a bit of an offensive liability, especially these past couple of years. But call us sentimental because we'll miss the guy. Not only that, we liked the guy and are sad to see him go.
With him and Woody gone, the last remnants of the great Giants run are pretty much gone. In fact, with the exception of Barry, Jason Schmidt and Pedro Feliz, there's nobody left from the 2002 team (well, Worrell is back, but he doesn't really count because he left for a couple of years). It really is the end of an era. At nine years with the team, he also matched the immortal Willie McCovey as the longest tenured first baseman in Giants' history.
