San Francisco Giants fans hoping for a Corbin Burnes jersey this holiday may be disappointed. ESPN's Jeff Passan reports that Burnes, alongside Alex Bregman, is likely to sign after Christmas. The Giants are among several teams interested in Burnes, who boasts an impressive career including four All-Star nods and a Cy Young Award.
Giants president Buster Posey recently met with Burnes' agent, Scott Boras, amidst speculation of a deal. However, Boras is known for prolonging negotiations, which could delay any signing. Meanwhile, the Giants have made significant moves this offseason, including signing shortstop Willy Adames to a franchise-record deal and reaching out to Burnes to encourage him to join the team.
