The San Francisco Giants re-signed left-hander Thomas Szapucki to a minor-league deal after non-tendering him on Nov. 17. Szapucki had thoracic outlet surgery in May and hasn't pitched in a competitive setting since 2022 due to his shoulder injury. The 27-year-old southpaw appeared in 12 major-league games (one start) in 2021 and 2022 with the New York Mets and Giants, allowing 18 earned runs on 26 hits (eight home runs) while walking 10 and striking out 22 in just 13 2/3 innings. Shoulder injuries like his are pretty unpredictable, so Szapucki may not be ready health-wise to open the 2024 minor-league season. | ||||||

New York Mets starting pitcher Thomas Szapucki has been optioned to Triple-A Syracuse on Friday. The left-hander made his MLB debut against the San Francisco Giants on Wednesday. Sadly, he allowed nine runs and couldn't get through the second inning. It appears the Mets are optioning Szapucki, so he can continue making improvements in the minors. Right-hander Yoan Lopez is expected to take over the roster spot, but nothing official has been announced yet. | ||||||
