The SF Giants released infielder Abiatal Avelino on Monday. Avelino was the last remaining piece in the organization from the Andrew McCutchen trades.

According to multiple SF Giants beat writers, including Mark W. Sanchez of KNBR, the team released infielder Abiatal Avelino from their alternate site in Sacramento.

Avelino originally came to the Giants in 2018 along with pitching prospect Juan De Paula from the New York Yankees for Andrew McCutchen.
