What happened: San Francisco baseball operations chief Buster Posey told reporters Tuesday that nearly every player on the roster is available, with Logan Webb the lone name treated as untouchable. The contracts drawing the most attention belong to first baseman Rafael Devers, shortstop Willy Adames and third baseman Matt Chapman. A fan survey now asks which of the three is most likely to be moved within the next month.

Why it matters: The Giants have badly underperformed expectations, and shedding one of their largest deals would open future payroll flexibility. Each candidate carries a complication: Devers is owed an enormous sum while slumping at the plate, and both Adames and Chapman hold no-trade clauses that give them control over any deal. That combination makes a clean sell-off easier to talk about than to execute.

By the numbers: San Francisco sits at 31-46 this season, scoring 4.1 runs per game and allowing 4.8. The club has dropped three straight and gone 2-3 over its last five. Adames and Chapman both hold no-trade clauses, while Devers is enduring a steep down year at the plate.

What to watch: Watch whether Posey can find a taker before next month's deadline, and whether either no-trade holder signals a willingness to waive. Devers' contract size makes him the hardest of the three to move.
