Rest-of-Season Projections
Signs minor-league deal with Giants
Beachy signed a minor-league contract with San Francisco on Saturday, Jon Heyman of FancredSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Beachy has pitched parts of five seasons in the big leagues, posting an ERA of 3.36 in 48 starts. Just two of those starts have come since 2013, however, and none have come since 2015. Elbow issues kept him out of affiliated baseball altogether the last two seasons, though he did appear briefly for the New Britain Bees of the Atlantic League last year, allowing five earned runs in 12.2 innings. It would be a surprise if the 32-year-old makes an impact at the major-league level this season, but his past success means there are certainly worse players for the Giants to take a shot on.

Beachy made his return from his second Tommy John surgery in July, but struggled through two starts with the Dodgers (8 IP, 7 ER, 6 BB, 5 K) before being sent to Triple-A Oklahoma City and ultimately removed from the 40-man roster. The 29-year-old once showed top-of-the-rotation type upside, posting a 2.00 ERA in 13 starts for the Braves back in 2012, but injuries have taken their toll. Beachy has lost close to three mph off his fastball from his "glory days," and his control has been erratic at best, but perhaps now, another season removed from surgery, he will be better. The list of pitchers (especially starters) who have successfully returned from a pair of Tommy John surgeries is small at best, so to say Beachy's future is cloudy would be an understatement. He signed an incentive-laden one-year deal to return to the Dodgers this offseason. Injuries to Brett Anderson and Hyun-Jin Ryu pushed Beachy up to No. 6 on the team's depth chart this spring, so he is just one more injury or an underwhelming spring from Michael Bolsinger away from cracking the rotation at the outset of the season.
