With 2026 MLB Free Agency starting to ramp up, and trades starting to happen to kickoff the offseason, there will be increased discussion as to where the top players in free agency could land. For the pitching side of things, Devin Williams is among the top names.
Devin Williams is coming off a season with the New York Yankees where he had struggled at points, leading to a 4.79 ERA, but he still had 90 strikeouts, which was the second most in his career, his walk rate dropped below 10% for the first time since 2020, and Williams’ FIP was a top-tier 2.68.
Plenty of teams will be looking for pitching help this MLB offseason, and with Devin Williams’ upside, he will be heavily sought after. With that, the team that makes sense to sign Williams is the San Francisco Giants.

San Francisco Giants Sign Devin Williams
A way the San Francisco Giants can accomplish this is by signing Devin Williams.
When Devin Williams is at his best, it is hard to deny he is one of the best relievers in the league. From 2020 to 2024, Williams had a 1.70 ERA, 68 saves, a 248 ERA+, 0.977 WHIP, and a 27-10 record which earned him two All-Star nods.
For a Giants team looking to turn things around quickly under their new manager in Tony Vitello, signing a young, top reliever in Devin Williams is the way they can go about doing so.
