Drew Pomeranz was one of the more intriguing reclamation projects on the free-agent market this past winter, and the San Francisco Giants rolled the dice with a one-year, $1.5 million deal.
Unfortunately, it hasn’t worked out and now it’s time to move on.
Pomeranz, 30, was the No. 5 overall pick in the 2010 draft by the Cleveland Indians. One year later, he was sent to the Colorado Rockies as the headliner in a four-prospect package to acquire Ubaldo Jimenez.
The Rockies then traded him to the Oakland Athletics, who traded him to the San Diego Padres, who traded him to the Boston Red Sox.
