The San Francisco Giants have made a few key moves this offseason. They first signed Willy Adames to a seven-year, $182 million contract back in December. Earlier this week, they signed Justin Verlander to a one-year, $15 million contract.
San Francisco may also not be done just yet. They could use a little more help in their starting rotation, especially after losing Blake Snell to the Los Angeles Dodgers.
They could look to address this by adding a starter via trade. Mike Axisa of CBS Sports notes that they could be a fit for right-hander Marcus Stroman.
“One year of an expensive veteran depth starter could help a team like the Angels, Giants, or Rangers. Stroman does not have any no-trade protection, though he will gain an $18 million player option for 2026 with 140 innings pitched in 2025,” Axisa wrote.
Stroman, a two-time All-Star, went 10-9 with a 4.31 ERA in 29 starts and one relief appearance with the New York Yankees in 2024. He also pitched 154 2/3 innings and struck out 113 batters.
