The Giants have designated right-hander Nick Vincent for assignment, as per multiple reports (including Kerry Crowley of the Bay Area News Group). Vincent was activated from the 60-day injured list before being DFA’ed.
Vincent had struggled to a 5.58 ERA over 30 2/3 innings before hitting the IL on May 29 with a pectoral strain. Much of the damage came in Vincent’s last four outings before his IL stint, as 13 of his 19 total earned runs on the season came over his last 6 2/3 frames of work. Still, despite some solid peripherals like an 8.8 K.9 and a 3.75 K/BB rate, Vincent was susceptible to the long ball, allowing seven homers over his 30 2/3 IP.
The 33-year-old Vincent joined San Francisco on a minors deal over the winter. This season’s results have been a damper on an otherwise quietly solid career for Vincent, as he amassed a 3.17 ERA over 332 innings for the Padres and Mariners from 2012-18. With this track record, he is likely to get some attention from one of the many teams looking for relief help at this time of year.
Hit the woah
Maybe they should just take the DFAs and “Inquireds” off his rumor board and just post real trades!
maybe you should care about more important things
Okay
Hell no, I for one love the intricacies of MLB roster management, I can get major trades from any site, but MLBTR follows the little things. Just cause you don’t care doesn’t mean we think the same..
What Joseph said!
Same.
Preach it!
There are plenty of lower quality sources for MLB news if all you care about are the headline grabbers, some of us enjoy more depth than that.
How about find another rumors site, then?
Dark are you 12?
The site is literally called, “mlb trade rumors”…what did I expect to find?
Lol. Exactly
Personally, I like the DFA’s, shows possible future trades and gives insight into what teams are doing and might be planning. Rumors are the name of the game after all.
Boring
Like the white sox!
You must enjoy the racist remarks directed by others at you yesterday.
Julio you supposed to be picking up my dog turds that are in my back yard. Wtf man
Let’s leave the PC nonsense in your mom’s basement. Adults are talking baseball.
Like a phishing scam.
Trade Idea: SF sends W.Smith to someone. That someone sends prospects to Cincy. Cincy sends….PUIG to SF! Yaz/Pillar/Puig in the outfield. Dodger fans (and perhaps initially Madbum) would go insane. Get ‘er done!
If the Giants ever traded for Puig, they should dunk him in mustard and sell him as a Hot Dog !!
Because that’s what he is. He’s a big baby hot dog !! and a cancer in the clubhouse. Save the mustard !!
My favorite player to DISlike is Puig. He is a classless clown
i don’t see how puig would be an upgrade. the better thing would be to qo smith and bum and the smart thing for both of them would be to accept, then in 2021 they hit the market sans the qo, the giants overpay for a year which they can afford and there is an extra year to build around them. the giants should though trade at least one of watson, dyson or moronta since they could lose 1 or 2 guys painlessly and still run At the wild card. also you will need to think about late august early Sept where one of the rotation pieces will have to go to the pen and one pen guy moved for cueto who is rehabbing right now
Both those dudes would be giving up a conservative $30-40 million guaranteed by accepting a QO. Not gonna happen.
We are monitoring his situation!
Poor dude, Same Giants player who has the sick wife?
Nah thats Pat venditte
The Submarine pitcher. OK
I believe he’s ambidextrous.
He’s amphibious
I believe he’s ambidextrous.
