Cruz, known for his elite power and speed, is the type of player who could be traded because of some struggles.<\/p>\n<p>Thomas Carelli of Sports Illustrated recently proposed a deal that would send Cruz to San Francisco in exchange for Heliot Ramos, Keaton Winn, and Tyler Fitzgerald, so the Giants would have to move a rather big haul.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pittnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/AP22179053113552-900x600.jpg\" alt=\"Column | The Pirates should not wait to extend Oneil Cruz - The Pitt News\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Giants have the potential to find a star in Cruz for a moderate price tag. Their team is prepared to contend as a top-end offense in 2026. If they can add elite power through Cruz, this lineup may go toe-to-toe with some of the best lineups in the MLB. The team would now command a top-5 of: Luis Arraez, Rafael Devers, Willy Adames, Matt Chapman, and Oneil Cruz.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>San Francisco already has a nice offensive lineup, as Matt Chapman, Rafael Devers, and some other guys can really swing it. Adding Cruz to that would only add to what can be a scary team in the NL West.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The San Francisco Giants have made some changes throughout the offseason and are looking to play much better in 2026.
