"Giants Secure Two-Time Gold Glove Winner Nick Ahmed on Minor League Deal"

The San Francisco Giants signed two-time Gold Glove winner Nick Ahmed to a minor league contract, adding a proven glove to their young shortstop position group. While planning to give Marco Luciano the starting job, the Giants lacked experienced insurance behind him, prompting the addition of Ahmed, who spent 10 seasons with the Diamondbacks and won back-to-back Gold Gloves in 2018 and 2019. The move provides the veteran depth the Giants have been seeking, with the focus still on preparing Luciano for his first Opening Day.
