MLB Giants Fully Committed to Pursuing Ohtani and Yamamoto with Heart and Soul

Report: Giants devoting ‘whole heart’ to Ohtani, Yamamoto pursuit originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area

The San Francisco Giants’ pursuit of two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani in MLB free agency is unparalleled.

Rumors suggest that San Francisco is one of a handful of MLB teams vigorously pursuing the reigning AL MVP this offseason. Additionally, the Giants have shown interest in Yoshinobu Yamamoto, a top free-agent starting pitcher who was officially posted by the Orix Buffaloes in the Nippon Professional Baseball league on Nov. 20, kicking off his 45-day window to sign with a team.

According to MLB Network’s Jon Morosi, who joined “Hot Stove” on Tuesday, the Giants are aggressively pursuing both players and are committed to acquiring one of them this offseason.

Furthermore, Morosi reports that the Giants are entirely devoted to landing Ohtani or Yamamoto in the coming weeks, emphasizing that the team has more at stake than just money in these pursuits.

It’s believed that San Francisco could make an intriguing pitch for Ohtani, potentially offering unique opportunities both on and off the field, making it a compelling choice for the two-way superstar.

Ohtani could sign soon, and the Giants are evidently sparing no effort in their pursuit to secure him as a game-changing addition to their team.
