A couple of thoughts on how the Giants can get off to fast start in 2026.

1) Tony Vitello must establish his brand of baseball from the start of spring training.

2) Rafael Devers has to have another strong season in 2026, giving Giants fans and the front office some more assurances that the front office did the right thing in picking him up.

3) Is Drew Gilbert going to have a breakout season? That's something to pay attention to from Opening Day onward.
