Giants Outright Scott Kazmir

By Mark Polishuk | June 11, 2021 at 4:37pm CDT

JUNE 11: Kazmir has cleared outright waivers, the Giants announced. It remains to be seen if he’ll accept an assignment to Triple-A Sacramento or elect free agency.

JUNE 5, 5:25 PM: Kazmir has officially been DFA’d by the Giants. Camilo Doval has been recalled to claim his roster spot, per Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com (via Twitter). Doval owns a 7.59 ERA/7.54 FIP in 13 appearances covering 10 2/3 innings on the year.

JUNE 5, 1:51 PM: The Giants have designated left-hander Scott Kazmir for assignment, The San Francisco Chronicle’s Susan Slusser reports.  The move could end Kazmir’s comeback attempt after three appearances and seven total innings.

Kazmir last pitched in the majors with the Dodgers in 2016, and his career had seemingly drawn to a close before the southpaw announced a comeback attempt in early 2020.  His efforts led to a minor league deal with San Francisco this past offseason, and Kazmir then found himself on a big league mound once more after the Giants selected his contract two weeks ago.

As one might expect, it wasn’t entirely smooth sailing for Kazmir after his long layoff, as he posted a 6.43 ERA over his seven innings and was tagged for three home runs.  Kazmir started two of his three games, and only just returned to the Giants to start last night’s contest after spending a few days on the restricted list.  Slusser reports that Kazmir stepped away from the team to mourn the death of his best friend, who passed away last Tuesday.

It’s possible another team might be intrigued by what they’ve seen in Kazmir and could make a waiver claim, though probably the likeliest outcome is that the veteran clears waivers.  Assuming Kazmir is open to continuing his comeback attempt, he would likely be willing to accept an outright assignment to the minors, or the Giants could conceivably just release him if they feel he doesn’t offer much more to the team.

Logan Webb was placed back on the 10-day IL just two days ago with another shoulder issue, while Aaron Sanchez is also still sidelined recovering from biceps tightness.  Sanchez had reportedly been throwing side sessions, however, so the Kazmir DFA could be a sign that the Giants are expecting Sanchez back relatively soon.  San Francisco also has a chance to reset its rotation due to an off-day on Monday.

        I think the “humor” comes from them designating Tropeano for assignment just a couple of days ago to bring Kazmir back, only to designate Kazmir after one additional appearance. Why designate a player who was doing okay for you if you’re not going to give his replacement a leash longer than one additional appearance?

        • BeforeMcCourt

          12 months ago

          Tropeano had an opt out date that just passed, likely June 1. Giants added him just after that, and then optioned him for the 3rd time this year

          Basically the giants honored the opt out he just triggered. They acknowledged they weren’t going to keep him up even though they technically called him up in time, and gave him a chance elsewhere

          Maybe do a little homework before criticizing logic?

          Beede had some brilliant starts before his injury, and he really looked like he was on the verge of a breakout. I just think he needs a while more to return

        • Baseball 1600

          12 months ago

          I don’t think Beede ever had “brilliant starts” let’s be honest here. He did however flash some nasty stuff, his fastball change-up combo plays similarly to Gausmans fastball-split. I think Beede as a reliever is a nice change for his career.

        • SFGbreezy

          He had that one against the Mets and DeGrom

        • Baseball 1600

          12 months ago

          You’re right I forgot about that. But it’s really hard to find any other starts where Beede was dominant. Closest thing I can remember is when he threw 5 shutout vs. LAD. Nothing else really stands out from his career as a starter.

      • Sabean Wannabe

        12 months ago

        Beede has 17 walks in 17IP while Brebbia only has 3IP at this point. I wouldn’t expect much. No one else is really rocking it at AAA. Giants are likely to add 1-2 bullpen arms at the trade deadline.

        Under that logic, maybe the Mets can give him a look too. After all, you won’t be playing lousy teams so often as the season goes on.

          Yes, our offense has flaws, but they’ve given our bullpen leads. You take away the 7 blown saves, the Marlins are sitting in first place right now with that same offense…injuries and all.

          Don’t be too sure about your team. You can’t ignore how poorly they’ve looked against teams that are better than the three they’ve feasted on. Unless low 80s wins the division, I wouldn’t count on the Mets.

          12-3 against three of the worst teams in MLB. 15-20 against everyone else that’s better than those teams.

          Also, remember that I’m a Marlins fan. We’ve seen you head-to-head against our team when your team was healthy. Sorry if we weren’t impressed. Now if the Mets take Ron Kulpa everywhere, then….

        • Longtimecoming

          12 months ago

          @mets – I don’t care either way about Mets and yes, I’d say they have strong pitching. HOWEVER, to win games you have to score more runs than the other team. That isn’t really been easy for them to do. A team that is barely over .500 isn’t a team to get all high and mighty about hearing another team that is barely over .500. Statistics seem to suggest those series could go either way.

        • MetsFan22

          Mets – see, that is why we can’t have a logical conversation. You resort to the crystal ball to make a point that you can’t prove and that has no relevance to your original point. What they do or do not do the next 2 games against the Padres in June has nothing at all to prove that either the Cards or Cubs should he scared to play them when in fact, at this point in the season they are barely over .500. Why don’t you just go for broke and say when they win their next 90 games?

          Mattingly pulls Bass with the bases loaded and a 5-2 lead for Anthony Bender, but I’m sure Bass is feeling accomplished knowing that he put Bender in a situation of one big hit and the lead is blown.

          There we go! We did it! Number 8! 3 in the last 4 games! The other one was bullpen throwing batting practice after Poteet got hurt.

          The last time the Mets were ‘relevant’ was 2015. The last time they were TRULY relevant was 1986. I don’t count the Subway Series because everyone and their mother knew that they didn’t have a snowball’s chance in hell of winning it.

          12 months ago

          Actually, I do listen to that team like I listen to all of the NL East teams. I have NL East (and all teams) games on my plan. The Mets team is more homerish than all the other NL East broadcast teams – among the worst in all of MLB.

          Even Ron Darling said on a segment when he was talking about Cano’s suspension, that their team uses all the “usual hyperbole” for their own players. Mets Hyperbole! Not my words. Ron Darling’s words. Your own guy, on your own broadcast team.

          And there’s nothing “slight” about their homer efforts compared to 90% of the other MLB broadcast teams.

        • MarlinsFanBase

          12 months ago

          To add, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – this Mets broadcast team would make the 1962 Mets sound better than the 1927 Yankees. They’d convince your fan base that Frank Thomas (1951-1966) and Marv Throneberry were better than Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig.

    If he had nastier stuff with less velo he could be a productive MLB pitcher. But he’s trying to pitch like he’s 10 years younger. Jaime Moyer pitched into his 40’s with slow stuff, Kazmir should try and reinvent himself.

I guess you haven’t paid attention to how your team has been run over the years. Maybe Montreal will build you a new stadium, or Portland or Vegas. I kinda like how this one sounds, THE UK A’s.

          While I don’t agree with @talking baseball, you have to admit that the post by @A’sfaninUK, was indefensible. He’s making huge accusations based on an assumption. No where is there any proof that the Giants fired “… someone because their best friend died”.

          Correlation is not causation. Just because he was DFA’d soon after his friend died doesn’t mean that was the reason. I saw Kazmir in both in starts, and with other pitchers coming off the IL soon, there was plenty of reason to let Kazmir go, other than the personal tragedy.

          Clearly @talking baseball overreacted, but I can see why. That kind of crap has no place here, or anywhere for that matter.

      Kazmir wasn’t fired. He was designated for assignment after stepping away to mourn the death of his best friend. Why do you choose to put a negative spin on it? Is it because the Giants have once again moved ahead of the A’s in the championship picture?

        Delusional Giants fans hate reality so much, Kazmir literally was fired, no matter what spin you want to throw on it.

        The A’s literally have bought more titles to the Bay than the Giants have and while both teams are in first now, the Giants wont be in September, but the A’s sure will.

        Farhan is a joke of a GM, period. Hasn’t done a thing to make this team better. SD and LA bout to smoke you back where you belong with AZ and CO. Cant wait to watch all you casuals disappear down the stretch when your senior citizen team of wash ups all get hurt and stop hitting against AAA scrubs.

          No, he literally wasn’t fired. He wasn’t released by the team, I’m sure they’re hoping he doesn’t get claimed and they can hang onto him with the AAA team.

          Just accept that Farhan has made the Giants a better team and they are well positioned to sustain their success moving forward. He took over when they were a last place team and now they are looking like a potential Wild Card team at the very least. He’s improved their farm system from being in the bottom half of MLB to being in the top half. All of that is the definition of making a team better.

          Dude, stop. You’re losing massive amounts of what credibility you might have had.

      A’s fan really don’t have any room to talk about poorly run front offices. If you buy a Matt Chapman jersey now you can probably wear it for 2 more years before it’s irrelevant and he is playing for a team that doesn’t cry poor all the time. The A’s haven’t won a playoff series in decades. Have fun watching their last championship on VHS.

    Cardinals need to sign him for depth, give him an August 1 opt-out date in a minor league deal.

    Mets need to trade Alonso, Lindor, Conforto McNeil Davis and nimmo. They don’t want to play and they are all immature children

    Ohh noo Doval is called up again? Hopefully he’s better now but I still think he needs a good few more months. Maybe a September call up is better but I could be wrong. I’m not in the front office.

      What did the Giants team do to you to bring so much vitriol? Not even trolls on Twitter use this many capital letters.

      They knew they were going to designate Tropeano for awhile now. That’s why they added Leone to the 40 man

    I’d be fun to see him wear NYM Orange and Blue finally.. He can’t be much worse than Peterson at this point. Peterson needs to be sent down soon anyway to control his innings for the season.

    Always liked Kazmir. The only time I saw Pedro pitch live in Fenway was against Kazmir – Kazmir won that game.

    “JUNE 11: Kazmir has cleared outright waivers, the Giants announced. It remains to be seen if he’ll accept an assignment to Triple-A Sacramento or elect free agency.”

    The Giants transaction page says it’s a done deal that he’ll stay in the organization.

    06/11/21: San Francisco Giants sent LHP Scott Kazmir outright to Sacramento River Cats.
