Ross Stripling confirmed to Danny Emerman of KNBR.com that he will indeed be opting in with the San Francisco Giants for the 2024 season. This is not a surprise because he said he’d be doing this back in September, but it is newsworthy, as players have until Monday to make their option decisions.
We’ve already seen a healthy degree of activity in that regard today. Cody Bellinger opted out, Wade Miley, too, but those were players declining mutual options. This was, technically, a 2-year deal for $25 million with an opt out after year one.
