The San Francisco Giants are reportedly showing interest in free agent hitter Matt Chapman. There are discussions about whether the Giants are pursuing Chapman to potentially drive up the bidding for other players, such as Shohei Ohtani and Yoshinobu Yamamoto. The team, city, and Bay Area could benefit from the Giants signing Ohtani to a record contract. Additionally, there is a possibility of a reunion between Bob Melvin and Chapman if it's a match in free agency.
