The San Francisco Giants have a solid core with considerable money coming off the payroll this winter, which could make them a suitor for Yoenis Cespedes.

San Francisco entered play on Monday at 78-71, 7.5 games back of the Los Angeles Dodgers in the National League West. They are further back in the race for one of the league's two Wild Cards.

There is speculation within other organizations that the Giants will pursue Cespedes, although he may be pricing himself out of the club's comfort zone with his recent play as a member of the New York Mets.
