Giants Add Jandel Gustave To 40-Man Roster

By Mark Polishuk | July 18, 2019 at 5:11pm CDT

The Giants announced a set of roster moves today, including the news that right-hander Jandel Gustave has been added to their 40-man roster and assigned to Triple-A.  Travis Bergen was moved to the 60-day injured list to create a 40-man spot for Gustave.  In other news, the Giants sent left-hander Andrew Suarez to Triple-A and called up southpaw Williams Jerez.

Gustave signed a minor league deal with San Francisco last winter, and has already spent much of his season at Triple-A Sacramento.  The 40-man roster placement does put Gustave a bit closer, at least on paper, to making his first MLB appearance since 2017 when he was a member of the Astros.  Gustave tossed 20 1/3 innings for Houston from 2016-17, though Tommy John surgery in June 2017 brought things to a halt.  After missing all of 2018 rehabbing, Gustave has looked shaky in his return to the mound this year, with a 6.85 ERA over 22 1/3 IP for Sacramento.

Suarez burst onto the big league scene with a solid 2018 rookie season, posting a 4.49 ERA, 2.89 K/BB rate, and 7.3 K/9 over 160 1/3 innings out of the Giants’ rotation.  Thus far in 2019, however, Suarez hasn’t followed up whatsoever, as he has appeared in only three games (two starts) and has been hit hard to the tune of a 10.03 ERA over 11 2/3 frames.

    Williams Jerez has been pitching better, but not too keen on Gustave. Possibly preparing for movement on the big league club…

        They could just leave to spot open. 40 doesn’t have to be full. Most teams won’t add someone unless they need to.

      ERA in the PCL is hard to read in general – it is a hitter friendly league

        Then Sam selman needs to be called up asap, supporting a era around 1.50 with a unbelievable 16.7 k per/9 :/

          If Watson or Smith get traded you’d have to think Selman is on the short list to be called up.

    I keep having to remind myself that AAA ERA’s are vastly bloated due not only to the hitter friendly environment, but also the juiced major league baseballs they’re using.
