# 2017 San Francisco Giants season

The 2017 San Francisco Giants season was the Giants' 135th season in Major League Baseball, their Diamond Jubilee in San Francisco since their move from New York following the 1957 season, and their 18th at AT&T Park. They finished in last place in the National League West with a record of 64–98, the worst record in the National League, as well as their worst record as a team since 1985. The Giants tied with the Detroit Tigers for the worst record in MLB. Incidentally, both teams had competed in the 2012 World Series five years earlier, which the Giants won.

## Offseason

### Preseason predictions

Preseason predictions for the Giants were generally positive. Ahead of spring training, Sports Illustrated ranked the Giants 10th out of 30 teams in their preseason power rankings, saying that if the bullpen improves as expected, "there's enough talent here for the Giants to crash the playoffs yet again, despite a very quiet off-season outside of the Melancon deal". Before the first regular-season game of the year, FanGraphs projected that the Giants would win 88 games, giving the team an 18% chance of winning the division and a 66% chance of making the playoffs.
