With the trade deadline in the past, Farhan Zaidi opened up about the Giants’ overtures for former Washington Nationals star Juan Soto.
"We had conversations about Juan Soto with the Nationals, again, like any team doing their due diligence was," Zaidi said."Obviously the Nationals gravitated towards the package with the players they liked the best. He's one of the best players in the big leagues and I think every team would love to have him. We were involved and the Nationals, I think, ultimately went with the group of players they liked the best.
Zaidi acknowledged that the Giants were hurt by several of their top prospects having injury-plagued or inconsistent seasons. A notable exception is 20-year-old lefty Kyle Harrison, who has dominated at both High-A and Double-A and is considered by many evaluators to be the top left-handed pitching prospect in the minors.
Zaidi said the Giants predictably received a lot of calls on Harrison, and while they have no intention of trading their best pitching prospects, they have remained open-minded. He said he didn't make anyone in the organization"untouchable" in trade talks over recent weeks. Get today's sports news out of Los Angeles.
