what year did the san francisco giants lose 100 games?
1985
the 1970s was a generally disappointing decade for the giants and the trend continued throughout lurie’s ownership. in 1985, a year which saw the giants lose 100 games (the most in franchise history), lurie responded by hiring al rosen as general manager. under rosen's tenure, the giants promoted promising rookies such as will clark and robby thompson, and made canny trades to acquire such players as kevin mitchell, dave dravecky, candy maldonado, and rick reuschel. the giants would not have a better influx of young position players since that period until the mid-2000s.
