The Giants sent Santos to minor-league camp Friday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports. Santos received an invite to spring camp, but he'll fall short of making the big-league roster. The 25-year-old allowed five runs (two earned with a 2:5 K:BB in 3.1 innings of action this spring.
Santos allowed two hits and two walks across one scoreless inning during Monday's 6-2 Cactus League win over the Athletics. Santos surrendered a double, a single and two walks but was able to escape the third inning without allowing a run. A non-roster invitee to spring training, Santos signed a minor-league pact with San Francisco in mid-December after being non-tendered by the Mariners following a forgettable two-season stretch in which he made just 16 relief appearances while missing time due to right knee and arm issues. He'll look to earn a spot in the San Francisco bullpen and return to form after his injury problems.
The Giants signed Santos to a minor-league contract with an invitation to spring training Tuesday, Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reports. Santos first reached the majors with the Giants in 2021 before being traded to the White Sox three years ago. The 26-year-old had a tough time with injuries the past two seasons with the Mariners, making a total of only 16 appearances due to arm and knee problems. Santos is recovered from April arthroscopic right knee surgery and has a chance to win a spot in the Giants' bullpen.
