LOS ANGELES — Giants reliever Trevor Gott’s season is over.
The club announced Friday that Gott was transferred to the 60-day injured list to clear a 40-man roster spot for right-handed pitcher Ricardo Pinto.
Gott was placed on the 10-day injured list with a right elbow strain on August 27 and expected to return within two-to-three weeks. The Giants have not announced any new details regarding Gott’s injury, but he is no longer eligible to pitch this season after being placed on the 60-day injured list.
The right-hander was one of president of baseball operations Farhan Zaidi’s best offseason acquisitions as he came to the Giants through a waiver claim after being designated for assignment by the Washington Nationals.
