The Giants signed pitcher Scott Kazmir to a minor-league contract on Tuesday, according to ESPN's Buster Olney.
Kazmir, 37, will also receive an invitation to join San Francisco's major league squad during spring training.
Reaching the majors in 2021 would mark quite an accomplishment for Kazmir. He hasn't pitched in an MLB game since 2016, most recently taking the mound at minor league exhibitions during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Last week, Olney reported that Kazmir was set to begin throwing for teams in his push for a comeback. The left-handed pitcher told the Tampa Bay Times' Marc Topkin in late January that his fastball had been clocked at 90.
