Giants not among five reported teams offering Soto a contract originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area
The Juan Soto MLB free agency sweepstakes is heating up and it doesn’t appear the Giants are much involved.
At least at the moment.
San Francisco is not one of the five teams currently offering the free-agent slugger a contract this offseason, NJ.com’s Randy Miller reported Monday, citing a person with knowledge of the situation, before MLB Network’s Jon Morosi the report later confirmed. on the day.
Juan Soto has offers from five teams, source confirms report @RandyJMiller.
Boston RedSox
Los Angeles dodgers
New York Mets
New York Yankees
Toronto blue jays @MLBNetwork— Jon Morosi (@jonmorosi) November 26, 2024
Miller also reported that the five teams that made initial offers to Soto’s agent Scott Boras met with Soto in Los Angeles last week.
It’s unclear if San Francisco ever met with Soto, after MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand reported on Nov. 18 that the Giants were a team that could eventually meet the 26-year-old in Southern California.
Soto is expected to field multiple rounds of offers from interested teams, including a “preliminary round” to gauge genuine interest, The Athletic’s Brendan Kuty reported Tuesday morning, citing a league source.
(Continued) …is expected to become increasingly serious, ruling out candidates and seemingly pointing to a decision time similar to the Winter Meetings.

It remains to be seen how interested the Giants are in Soto, if at all, but based on teams’ reported draft offers — and their apparent lack of one — it doesn’t appear they’re looking for one of the biggest free agents players. very hard at all times.
