The Giants made an in-person pitch to Sasaki in Los Angeles but were told he's narrowed his list of potential teams and they aren't on it.

With the Giants out of the running for Sasaki, San Francisco’s rotation options include Verlander, Logan Webb, Robbie Ray, Kyle Harrison, Jordan Hicks, Hayden Birdsong, Landen Roupp, Keaton Winn and Mason Black. It is currently unclear if the Giants would potentially roll out a six-man rotation.
