The San Francisco Giants enter the offseason with several needs to address as they prepare for spring training. After initially securing Willy Adames, the excitement around potential big-name acquisitions has dwindled. The Giants have notably not secured further star players, with rivals making significant signings that put them at a disadvantage in the NL West. Internally, optimism remains regarding their roster, especially with older additions like Justin Verlander, but questions linger about their lineup effectiveness compared to previous seasons.

While the infield appears strong with Adames, Matt Chapman, and promising young talent like Tyler Fitzgerald, the Giants still seek additional offensive depth. They are rumored to be interested in left-handed hitters like Randal Grichuk and have discussed potential trades for other options. Enhancing the catching position is also critical, as current backup Tom Murphy struggled with injuries last season. The team has made moves to bolster depth here, but they may need one more reliable option.

In the pitching staff, depth is crucial after last season's struggles, which led to frequent bullpen games. They have added Joey Lucchesi as a potential depth starter. As they look to compete for a wild card spot, strengthening the bullpen with another trusted reliever could be a pathway to success for the Giants this upcoming season.
