On Saturday morning, the San Francisco Giants signed Jose Dominguez to a minor league contract. First report came from Mat Eddy of Baseball America. A minor league contract for someone who flashes his type of “stuff” is always a low risk-high reward situation. He appeared in 34 games for the Padres last season but got batted around hard. Most likely he spends time in Sacramento (AAA) to start. If his numbers look good and his command improves, he would be a valuable asset to the Giants’ bullpen.
The San Francisco Giants are looking to extend Madison Bumgarner, “…For a long, long time…” according to CEO Larry Baer.
