5 possible landing spots for free agent RHP Aaron Nola

2. San Francisco Giants

The Giants’ pitching staff was decent overall in 2023 with a 4.02 team ERA, but San Francisco lacks depth when it comes to starting pitchers currently. That could be further compromised by Alex Cobb potentially missing the start of next season due to hip surgery, and Alex Wood possibly on his way out as a free agent. The Giants have been seeking to make a free-agency splash for several years, and while Nola isn’t the biggest name out there, it would be an important get to satisfy a team need. Ace Logan Webb was spectacular again throughout the majority of the 2023 season, and Nola could form a nice one-two punch with Webb that would potentially get the Giants back in contention in the NL West.
