Giant to choose Matt Gage

The giants choose the contract of the left -hander Matt Gagereports Jon Heyman from New York Post. You have to open both the 26-man and 40-man service plans to officially make your transport officers.

The 32 -year -old fee signed a Minor League contract with San Francisco at the beginning of this month after having chosen a freelance agency after a direct passage of the Tigers. He has thrown 5 1/3 Shutout-Internings with the Giants triple-A club. Gage played in parts of three MLB campaigns, but despite a decent 1.42 -deserved run, has only 25 1/3 innings during this time. He has 22.5% of his opponents against a sidewalk prices of 10.8%.

With Erik Miller The giant veterans have on the injured list due to a sprain of elbows Joey Lucchesi And Scott Alexander as left options in Skipper Bob Melvins Bullpen. Lucchesi did well and kept the opponents in 10 inner races. Alexander only recorded 1 1/3 inning in two appearances and approved a run. The Giants added him to the squad shortly before the break.

Gage no longer has a Minor League options, so he either has to stay in the Big League bullpen or be intended for the order and covered on waiver. The Giants need to need a clear need for left-handed Bullpen aid, so it should have the opportunity, although President of Baseball Operations Posey and General Manager Zack Minasian could also look at the trading market in the next two weeks to achieve more established left-handed bullpen presence.
