Ruf was a key piece of the Giants’ attack against left-handed pitching from 2020 until last August, when they traded him to the Mets for J.D.

“We’ll probably have some conversations with Darren and get a good handle on what he experienced in New York in the second half of last year and also what he experienced in spring training this year,” Kapler said. “We’d like to talk to Darren about that before we jump to any conclusions.
