"The team's 40-man roster is currently full, so the team will have to make a pair of corresponding moves. Houser is receiving a two-year, $22 million deal with a club option for a third year, according to ESPN's Jeff Passan. Houser, a second-round pick in the 2011 draft by the Astros, split last season with the Tampa Bay Rays and Chicago White Sox, posting a 3.31 ERA over 125 innings (21 starts)."
"Over nine major-league seasons, Houser owns a career 4.06 ERA over 733 2/3 innings with 576 strikeouts. The right-hander, who will turn 33 in February, will join a rotation that currently features Logan Webb, Robbie Ray and Landen Roupp. San Francisco has many internal options for the fifth spot in the rotation, a list that includes Hayden Birdsong and Blade Tidwell, but it's possible that the Giants continue seeking external options to fill the vacancy."

San Francisco made two additions to address rotation and bullpen needs by signing right-handed starter Adrian Houser and right-handed reliever Jason Foley. The team's 40-man roster is full, so corresponding roster moves will be necessary. Houser agreed to a two-year, $22 million contract with a club option for a third year; he posted a 3.31 ERA over 125 innings last season and owns a 4.06 ERA across nine major-league seasons with 576 strikeouts. Houser will join a rotation featuring Logan Webb, Robbie Ray and Landen Roupp, while internal candidates Hayden Birdsong and Blade Tidwell remain options. Foley, 30, missed most of last season after right shoulder surgery and made only five Triple-A appearances, with an expected return in mid-2026.
