Giants Sign Chapman, Eye Soto in Free Agency

The San Francisco Giants have secured star third baseman Matt Chapman with a six-year, $150 million extension, ensuring his stay with the team. As the offseason approaches, attention shifts to Blake Snell and his potential free agency, with speculation about whether he will remain with the Giants or seek a long-term deal elsewhere. The Giants are also contenders in the Soto sweepstakes, facing competition from teams like the Yankees and Mets, who are also focusing on acquiring outfielder Juan Soto and potentially Baltimore Orioles ace Corbin Burnes. Additionally, the Giants have brought pitcher Tristan Beck back to the roster following his recovery from vascular surgery, while younger players like Marco Luciano and Luis Matos remain in the minors for more playing time. The Giants are balancing current roster adjustments with future planning as they prepare for the next season.
