The San Francisco Giants are expected to tighten their financial belt for the 2025 MLB season after a disappointing 2024 campaign, finishing fourth in the NL West. Under new president of baseball operations Buster Posey, the team plans to reduce payroll from last year's $206 million, which exceeded the luxury tax threshold.

With only $30-$40 million available for new signings, the Giants will likely miss out on high-profile targets like Juan Soto and Blake Snell. Chairman Greg Johnson emphasized that while there is no fixed budget, the organization aims to make smart decisions to build a competitive team.
