The headline says it all. Here is the reportage:

The #SFGiants are confident they will be resigning Jeremy Affeldt, likely to 3-year deal.

Affeldt, who is the best left reliever on the market, is coming off a three-year, $14 million deal. He just put up two fantastic -- and damn nigh identical -- seasons for San Francisco, so it makes sense they want him back.
