Belt’s departure leaves Brandon Crawford as the only holdover from the Giants teams that won World Series titles in 2010, ’12 and ’14
Shortstop Brandon Crawford is the final remnant of the Giants’ World Series teams of the early 2010s after longtime first baseman Brandon Belt agreed to a one-year deal with the Toronto Blue Jays, according to multiple reports on Monday night.
Belt made his debut with the Giants in 2011, and except for injuries was the everyday first baseman ever since. Belt, know by Giants fans over the years as “Baby Giraffe” and more recently “Captain” became the longest-tenured member of the Giants when Buster Posey retired after the 2021 season. The 2016 All-Star had one of his best seasons in 2021, hitting a career-high 29 home runs with a slash line of .274/378/.597 in helping the Giants win a San Francisco franchise-record 107 games.
After 12 seasons with the Giants, Belt joins a loaded Blue Jays lineup headed by Vladimir Guerrero Jr., George Springer, Bo Bichette and former A’s third baseman Matt Chapman. Belt likely will share time at first base with Guerrero and also give Toronto matchup options at designated hitter.
