BREAKING: Roki Sasaki REJECTS SF Giants | Foul Territory
Instant reaction to reports out of SF that Japanese pitching phenom Roki Sasaki has told the Giants he will not be signing with the team.
Todd Frazier, AJ Pierzynski, Erik Kratz, and Scott Braun welcome in Will Sammon of The Athletic to discuss Pete Alonso and the rest of the current free agent class, the possibility of a Stroman trade, and how the Rays will handle playing at Steinbrenner Field in 2025. Ben Badler of Baseball America comes on to talk how the eventual signing of Roki Sasaki will impact the rest of the league and how the Tigers have a stacked prospect core.
Plus, Jeff Hoffman signs with the Blue Jays after appearing to be Baltimore bound just days earlier. As the international signing period approaches, the competition for Roki Sasaki is as stiff as ever. The guys go in the weeds talking about super-early 2025 predictions.

“Just get it over with” you reporters that are hyping him up and say “ I’m done with this” bitch about is? If Roki is white and taking time you guys have no problem.
Giants consolation is they have 3 highly regarded int’l players ready to sign, including a 5 tool player.
Not surprised which is reason they got Justin Verlander. At least you got the international money to sign more international players to develop.
Allll Farhan’s fault, he destroyed the SF Giants image in the last 6 years. 😡
East coast teams have no chance. He'll stay out West.
The International signing allocation is of little importance to Sasaki, Wolfe and his entourage…Roki Sasaki will sign the biggest contract for a pitcher in MLB history, the minute after the initial minor league capped period is over with. Steve Cohen is the most likely to sign Roki to that long-term $40 mil ++ AAV deal
Breaking News: Sasaki signing with the Dodgers.
He's not going to either NY team either
He's a Ranger
I will say this is surprising. Sasaki has said he is looking for a team with good pitching development and the Giants certainly have that. Plus they're on the pacific coast so it's easy to travel to and from Japan (at least relative to other parts of the country), the Giants are willing to spend money to make their team better and they have new management and vision under Buster. I get there's a whole nobody wants to go to SF narrative rn in baseball but still, you'd figure he would have entertained them for a bit longer considering all the previous factors.
Plus he's still in the mix with Toronto which has a similar problem with people seemingly not wanting to go there yet they don't have the the pitching development, vision, and geography SF has
IT aint his choice. ITs MLB who is holding up his ability to announce his team
SF was never a serious contender. Toronto is not in it. Padres.
Wouldn't you!
He took a stroll around San Francisco area and was like heck no.
Yankees as well are out
SF giants fix the city
Yankees and Mets have also been told NO.
Why would he even think about going to the Blue Jays? 🤣
He was never going we all know he's going to LA like every other player.
The fact that he's taking so long makes me think he's not eager about the Dodgers. I mean, the Dodgers are the most popular franchise in Asia and the defending champs. It should be a no brainer
He said thanks for playing 🤣
Rejecting the giants are a dodger move already
Roki sasaki welcome to Sacramento!
That bearded fool a hater, just cause no one waited around for him lmao. Did the same w Soto …. Just quite complaining and do ur easy ass job dude lmao 🤣 fool
