SF Giants sign outfielder Will Brennan to one-year MLB deal
"Brennan, 28, has played 269 games over four major-league seasons with the Cleveland Guardians, posting a career .267/.307/.373 slash line (90 OPS+) with 14 home runs and 19 stolen bases. We've liked him for some time, said general manager Zack Minasian. Plays the game really hard. Gritty, grindy type. Controls the strike zone, moves around the outfield mostly the corner outfield spots."
"In September, he had sports hernia surgery to address a lingering groin issue. Depsite those surgeries, Minasian said Brennan will be full-go during camp. I think getting him into action here, maybe just being a little bit cautious, Minasian said of Brennan, who was non-tendered by Cleveland in November. He shouldn't be hindered, more just trying to be smart about it."
Will Brennan signed a one-year Major League deal with the Giants to add outfield depth. Brennan, 28, has played 269 major-league games with a .267/.307/.373 slash line, 14 home runs and 19 stolen bases. The Giants characterize him as a gritty, hard-playing corner outfielder who controls the strike zone and can move around the corner spots. Brennan underwent Tommy John surgery on his left elbow last June and had sports hernia surgery in September but is expected to be full-go for camp with cautious early action. He has modest defensive metrics and a pronounced platoon split, and he will compete for a backup outfield spot.
