Left-hander Sean Manaea has opted out of his 2024 contract with the San Francisco Giants, becoming a free agent.
“I have opted out, but I had an amazing time with the Giants,” he said via text message. “Everyone was really good to me and they run a top-tier organization.”

He has been outspoken about his mental health struggles with San Diego during which he dealt with self-doubt and a lack of confidence.
