MLB’s 2023 regular season is about to start with teams completing their final Spring Training games. The San Francisco Giants are a franchise that has had a rather difficult off-season. They lost ace pitcher Carlos Rodon to the New York Yankees. Furthermore, they failed to sign the star players that they targeted in free agency, Carlos Correa and Aaron Judge.

The Correa deal collapsed due to supposed medical issues, whereas Judge extended his stay in the Bronx. Now, the $3.7 billion worth of SF Giants are going to back the top official that was responsible for these deals and their failures. 

The San Francisco Giants are backing President of Baseball Operations Farhan Zaidi

The San Francisco Giants have had a torrid time this off-season. As earlier mentioned, they lost their ace Carlos Rodon to the New York Yankees in free agency. Despite all of this, the Giants seem content with Farhan Zaidi, their President of Baseball Operations. In fact, they plan on giving him a new contract. MLB Trade Rumors shared the news via Twitter, confirming that the Giants consider Zaidi a part of their future.

In a Tweet, MLB Trade Rumors said, “#SFGiants hold a club option for 2024 on their baseball operations president, and San Francisco’s chairman says they intend to exercise it if they don’t first agree to an extension.” Furthermore, according to mlbtraderumors.com, Giants’ chairman Greg Johnson said, “I can tell you that (Zaidi) is 100 percent here through the end of next season. We do have an option”. He further mentioned that extension talks are being thought of for the near future.
