Ahead of Monday\u2019s series, news came out that the Giants<\/a> had signed one of their recent draft picks.<\/p>\n

Social Media Reacts<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what people have been saying about Wentz:<\/p>\n

Jeff Young:<\/a> \u201cThe Giants<\/a> have spent all of their bonus pool money (pretty much down to the dollar) with the Dalton Wentz signing. 20th-round pick JP Robertson is the lone unsigned pick from this year\u2019s class (excluding Mikey Bell). The deadline to sign is tomorrow.\u201d<\/p>\n

@C2Cbsbl:<\/a> \u201cMassive get for the #SFGiants They pull Dalton Wentz away from Wake Forest, and used every dollar they had left to do so This is the cherry on top of what is an amazing draft class, Wentz was probably a top 5 round talent\u201d<\/p>\n

Michael Monreal:<\/a> \u201cMassive get in the 16th round for the #SFGiants. Was hearing he was leaning towards signing a few days ago so I\u2019m glad it\u2019s finally official. Pure speculation, but I\u2019d assume Mikey Bell not signing had something to do with this getting over the hump.\u201d<\/p>\n

@maddelucchi:<\/a> \u201cCherry on top to round out the Giants<\/a> draft class. Wouldn\u2019t have expected them to wait until the 16th round if they were going to sign Wentz, but credit to Holmes & the staff. Fun high-risk bat to balance the pitcher-heavy class.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite their talented roster, the Giants<\/a> have been among the worst teams in baseball.<\/p>\n

They are the fourth-place team in the National League West with a 44-61 record in 105 games.<\/p>\n

At home, the Giants<\/a> have gone 24-26 in 50 games.<\/p>\n
