I’d prefer a different ex DBack free agent starter
Hi Zac, we’re calling to let you know that you cost too much for us. Byeeeee.
Why would we want to give up a draft pick for a 5+ ERA starter. Pass
Like most rumors, it’s just Boras linking his client to the Giants in order to generate more interest. Slusser is also known to be close and have direct connections with him
Zac Gallen’s statcast is as blue as most California congressional districts.
And he has a QO attached.
Can we not?
That’s not how you spell Paul Skenes.
For what reason would we sign him and not Imai
Zac Gallen or Merrill Kelly would be a good signing.
I know he was pretty bad last year, but I would love Gallen if he’s affordable. He and Webb have been neck every year except for last, and when he’s good he and Webb are pretty similar.
I get that the coaches who engineered the huge turnarounds from Gausman/Rodón/etc. were kapler/Farhan guys and the current regime doesn’t have a positive track record with pitching like the old regime did, but if ever there was a guy who was a candidate for a rebound, it’s gallen.
Exactly as Grant Brisbee predicted a month ago.
We can fix him. 2025 was his first real “bad” yr
Noooo
If he didn’t have the QO I would be more inclined to give him a shot. He has a lot of upside if he can get a least to his 2024 form

Gallen’s fastball will be have to re-worked if the Giants do end up signing him. Interesting project for the new staff.
I wouldn’t hate this since I think he’d do well with our ballpark and coaching, but man it would be hard to give up the draft picks for him
Webb
Wisenhunt
Verlander
Scherzer
Gallen?
nightmare blunt rotation.
