Free agency could get a little more interesting for the SF Giants. According to Jorge Castillo of ESPN, New York Yankees outfielder Cody Bellinger is expected to opt out of his contract in favor of free agency.
Potential SF Giants target reportedly expected to opt out of contract
Bellinger just concluded the second year of his three-year, $80 million pact that he originally signed with the Chicago Cubs. This deal included opt-outs after the first and second seasons.
The left-handed bat did not have the type of season with the Cubs in 2024 to confidently opt out of his deal and land a larger payday.
