Giants weigh pitching options as Boras meeting opens offseason talks

The Giants met with agent Scott Boras on November 10 at the general managers meetings in Las Vegas as they consider ways to strengthen their pitching staff. The club is not expected to pursue Tarik Skubal, the top free-agent pitcher, but has discussed Japanese right-hander Kaima Taira internally and could have interest in him, team president Buster Posey said generally of Boras’s clients.
