Countdown to Winter Meetings: This Mystery Team Could Make A Splash In All Sweepstakes

After a great 2023, the process of a better 2024 season has started on an engaging note. The reason behind it is the will of multiple teams to splash money signing the superstar players. Because of this, many consider the New York Mets, the Yankees, and the Los Angeles Dodgers as the highest spenders this season, and upcoming winter meetings may witness a glimpse of it. However, there is a “team to watch” in next week’s Winter Meetings.

Given the availability of skilled players like Shohei Ohtani, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, and more, chances are there of huge money flowing in this offseason window. Thus, traditional high-spenders consider themselves winners in this race of making the deal. However, it seems the 2014 World Series winners are in the mood to change it.

San Francisco Giants to uncover the mystery with a splash of money

The San Francisco Giants are a team with low spending. The reason behind this is their 2023 payroll which accounted just around the league’s average. Plus, their spending in the last few seasons adds to the case. However, the Giants are planning to change it.

According to an update, the former champions have plans to sign Ohtani and Yamamoto this season. Given that the combined estimations for both players are more than $ 700 million, it would need something special from the Giants to make it. However, are they reaching this goal? Well, according to reports, it seems they are.

The same is the case with MLB. The Giants have also accepted it and are ready to change their approach.

According to the Forbes, the Giants are reportedly interested in Soto due to their well-documented desire for Cody Bellinger. They are considered one of the top three contenders to acquire him, alongside the Yankees and Chicago Cubs, as indicated by various sources.
