Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle reports that the Giants are likely to non-tender Brian Wilson.
Not a big surprise, as the Giants are reluctant to give Wilson a $6.8 million guarantee in arbitration coming off Tommy John surgery. While it makes sense as a baseball decision, Schulman hears that the two sides "aren't seeing eye to eye" at the moment. The Giants want to re-sign Wilson to a one-year deal for a significantly lower guarantee once he reaches free agency, but the bearded closer wants to be compensated for what he has done for the organization.
