SAN FRANCISCO -- The offseason haul thus far has not been particularly flashy, but Giants president of baseball operations Farhan Zaidi does have at least one ambitious goal for his first winter in charge at AT&T Park.
At the MLB Winter Meetings last week, Zaidi said he hoped to add enough starting depth that Dereck Rodriguez and Andrew Suarez would not be needed in the Giants' rotation on Opening Day.
"They certainly showed the capability to start in the big leagues and be on the Opening Day roster, but I would view it as a sign of organizational health if we have to make some tough decisions with those guys," Zaidi said.
