Giants extended Kevin Gausman a qualifying offer.  Guess they'd like to keep him.

SF and Gausman’s agent are working on a long term deal.  The QO is cover for the Giants in case they can’t reach an agreement (SF would receive a draft choice if he declines the offer and signs with another team).  

Others who received a QO:

George Springer
Trevor Bauer 
DJ LeMahieu
JT Realmuto
Marcus Stroman 

I think it is safe to say that none of those guys will be on Zaidi’s shopping list.  Giving up draft choices is not the way he does business.
