Brent Honeywell: Everything you need to know

The Giants signed Honeywell to a minor-league contract Monday, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports. Honeywell was non-tendered by the Dodgers following the 2024 season and wound up not pitching anywhere in 2025. The 30-year-old has made 63 appearances (three starts) at the big-league level, collecting a 4.10 ERA and 67:37 K:BB over 94.1 innings. Honeywell is likely ticketed for Triple-A Sacramento to begin the 2026 campaign.

The Dodgers non-tendered Honeywell on Friday, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports. Honeywell ended the 2024 regular season on the Dodgers' 15-day injured list due to a cracked right fingernail, but he was added to the NLCS roster against the Mets. Honeywell made three postseason appearances, allowing nine earned runs on nine hits and three walks across 8.2 innings. The 29-year-old will enter free agency and look to sign with a team in need of right-handed depth out of the bullpen.

Honeywell (finger) is part of Los Angeles' roster for the NLCS versus the Mets, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports. Honeywell ended the campaign on the 15-day injured list due to a cracked fingernail, but the issue appears to have since been resolved. The right-hander played in 18 games for the Dodgers during the regular season, posting a 2.62 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 17:9 K:BB over 34.1 innings while picking up a win, a save and a hold. Honeywell will take the roster spot of lefty reliever Alex Vesia, who is sidelined due to a rib cage injury.
