Amidst a quiet SF Giants offseason, fans were offered a glimmer of hope on Tuesday after Jeff Passan of ESPN reported that San Francisco is aggressively pursuing a second baseman and linked the team to Chicago Cubs infielder Nico Hoerner.
While Hoerner would obviously be an ideal fit as a player with the Giants given the fact that he is fast, hits for average, and is great defensively, three departments the Giants would love to improve in, but his ties to the Bay Area could give him reason to stick around for a while.
