The Giants have been active in the infield market, recently signing Willy Adames and extending Matt Chapman, and now they are considering further additions such as Pete Alonso to bolster their first base and designated hitter positions.
With LaMonte Wade Jr. slated for most of the first base at-bats, the Giants might still shift him to DH if they acquire Alonso, since Wade is a free agent next winter and his future is uncertain.
Despite top prospect Bryce Eldridge being viewed as the long-term answer at first base, the Giants may opt to stack him with Alonso, creating a formidable combo while also allowing Eldridge to be a potential trade chip.
Alonso's potential contract negotiations may involve opt-out clauses, reflecting the trend of allowing players to re-enter free agency after a few seasons, providing flexibility for both the player and the team.
