Giants Eye Bullpen Overhaul After Dismal 65-97 Season
San Francisco's 2026 campaign was a worst-case scenario, and the front office is focused on mid-tier acquisitions with bullpen improvement as the top priority.
The Giants finished 65-97 in 2026, their worst season in recent memory after going .500 in 2025. Injuries and underperformance from key veterans derailed any Wild Card hopes under first-year manager Tony Vitello. The front office carries $584.6MM in future commitments led by Rafael Devers, Willy Adames, and Matt Chapman. San Francisco is expected to pursue bullpen upgrades and mid-tier additions rather than marquee free agents this offseason.
