Next Moves for the Giants

After another .500 season, it is very apparent that the Giants must pursue an aggressive offseason. Letting go of Bob Melvin and hiring Tony Vitello was a step in the right direction. Buster Posey proved last offseason that he can go out and acquire stars. Adding Devers was a huge move for the Giants. What is next for them? Looking at who is available, the Giants should start by going after pitching. Dylan Cease would be a major help to the Giants’ rotation alongside Logan Webb and Robbie Ray. Another pitcher that could be an option if he becomes available to trade for would be the 2024 Cy Young winner, Tarik Skubal. If the Tigers offer up Skubal, he could be another huge addition to the Giants’ pitching staff. Moving on to bats, anyone from Bichette, Tucker, or Alonso could make a major impact next season. With already established players like Matt Chapman, Willy Adames, and Rafael Devers, adding at least one more big bat could boost the Giants into a more successful season and increase playoff hopes. Bryce Johnson is also someone to keep an eye out for next season. He was pulled up late last season in hopes of starting a successful career. He didn’t have his shining moment quite yet, but he should be someone to keep watch this season. We also got great news that former star manager Bruce Bochy would be joining the Giants’ front office. It will be interesting to see how he fits in and if Posey decides to bring back any former World Series teammates for more assistance. With strong new leadership, 2026 looks bright for the San Francisco Giants.
