Many MLB teams have made big moves this off-season, signing superstars to compete for the World Series in 2023. The San Francisco Giants didn’t sign any big names, but it was not because of a lack of trying. Their organization made offers to Aaron Judge and Carlos Correa, almost getting a deal done with the latter. But unfortunately, they were unable to do so.
This meant that their pursuit of a true star failed. Their organization brought in a number of high-level players, but not stars. One of their new additions recently commented on the off-season and even lauded the team.
