"Just five days after winning the World Series with the Dodgers, centerfielder Justin Dean has been claimed by the Giants. Dean appeared in 13 playoff games for Los Angeles, but had zero plate appearances as he was a defensive replacement and pinch runner. The 29-year-old was called up in August and served a similar role in 18 regular-season games, going 0-for-2 with a stolen base."
"To make room for Dean and pitcher Reiver Sanmartin, claimed off waivers from Cincinnati, the Giants designated right-hander Mason Black for assignment. Black struggled this year across two levels: His only appearance for the Giants was a four-inning relief outing on July 4 in Sacramento against the A's. He allowed three runs and a pair of homers in an 11-2 loss after relieving Justin Verlander."

Dean played in 13 playoff games without a plate appearance, used primarily as a defensive replacement and pinch runner, and was 0-for-2 with a stolen base in 18 regular-season MLB games. He hit .289/.378/.431 in 90 Triple-A games at Oklahoma City and has three minor-league options left. The Giants also claimed pitcher Reiver Sanmartin off waivers from Cincinnati. To make room, the Giants designated right-hander Mason Black for assignment after he posted a 5.81 ERA at Triple-A and a 6.47 MLB ERA since 2024.
