Giants rookie first baseman Bryce Eldridge has been the subject of trade speculation as San Francisco seeks pitching, though moving a prospect of his caliber is unlikely. The 21-year-old, who hit 25 homers in the minors last season, aims to secure a role at first base/designated hitter after recovering from wrist surgery. Meanwhile, the Giants are pursuing a second baseman, with Brendan Donovan and Nico Hoerner as potential targets. They also recently signed Venezuelan prospect Luis Hernández for a $5MM bonus, marking a significant addition to their minor league system.
