Tony Watson

After the San Francisco Giants made their first cuts of spring training, here’s a look at who could possibly see their names on the 25-man roster to open up the season.

The Giants improved their offense by adding Andrew McCutchen and Evan Longoria, but Duane Kuiper agreed with Murph & Mac on Wednesday morning that it was equally important for them to acquire Tony Watson.

Newly-signed reliever Tony Watson joined KNBR’s Giants Hot Stove on Tuesday night and spoke about facing the Giants last season and what swayed his decision to sign with San Francisco.

While others celebrated the start of a three-day weekend, the Giants had another reason to be excited on Friday night.

It was reported on Friday night that the Giants came to terms with left-handed reliever Tony Watson, according to Jon Heyman of FanRag sports.

After reporting that the Giants are interested in free agent reliever Tony Watson, USA Today’s Bob Nightengale joined Gary & Larry on Wednesday afternoon to discuss how the left-handed would fit in San Francisco.

As the team heads down to Arizona in preparation for their first Spring Training game on February 23, the Giants are reportedly looking to bolster their bullpen with free agent Tony Watson.

Bobby Evans and Bruce Bochy insist the Giants are in a better position depth wise thanks to arms like Sam Dyson and Hunter Strickland, but because two of their late-inning relievers are battling back from injury, San Francisco hopes to add another pitcher capable of throwing in the seventh or eighth inning of close games.
