The Giants won 3-1. They're 13-4 at Oracle Park and 21-14 overall. The Gausman, DeSclafani, Wood trio is as good as any in the National League right now, and it was entirely built on savvy one-year deals.

Can't keep them all. Signing Gausman seems like a no brainer. Not for Gerrit Cole $ but he is going to get paiiiiiid.

This all but proves offering him a qualifying offer was the wrong move.
I will fully admit that I was wrong saying there was no way we would offer him a qualifying offer. But it appears that I was actually correct saying that we shouldnt, but my reason why was COMPLETELY wrong. Gausman looks like the real deal. He looks to have figured things out, and the sample size is getting to the point where its large enough for me to believe this. But its now obvious that a QO was wrong and we should have just signed him to a multi year contract.
He got $18M for one year. He loves it here, and he absolutely would have signed a 3/$30-$40M or something in that neighborhood. If he keeps this up, there is zero chance we would be able to sign him for that. His market will be substantially higher than that if he pitches close to this level all year.
Bummer.
