4/5 🧵 The more interesting part is the bigger roster math. The Giants already exercised Thibodeaux’s fifth-year option, locking in $14.75 million for 2026. That says they still value him. But the article also points out the awkward reality: he may not be a long-term Giant beyond 2026. If he plays well, he could price himself out because of what the team is already spending on Burns and what Carter may command next. If he disappoints, moving on becomes easier. So: not being traded now doesn’t mean part of the forever plan.
