Where do things stand for the Giants when it comes to the Giancarlo Stanton sweepstakes?
Well, there was this update on Wednesday morning:
Source: #SFGiants have remained in contact with #Pirates on Andrew McCutchen, who is among options they could pursue if they do not acquire Giancarlo Stanton from #Marlins. @MLB @MLBNetwork— Jon Morosi (@jonmorosi) November 29, 2017
In early November, the Pirates exercised their $14.5 million option on McCutchen.
After the 2018 season, he is slated to hit unrestricted free agency.
McCutchen turned 31 years old in October.
