Aceves signed a minor-league contract with the Giants earlier this week, Matt Eddy of Baseball America reports.
The deal presumably includes an invitation to big-league spring training for Aceves, who split time between the Yankees and Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre last season. The right-hander's ability to swing between both starting and relief duties remains his most attractive attribute, as he certainly wouldn't warrant a look based on his numbers alone. He struggled mightily over his 19.1 innings with the Yankees in 2014, posting a 6.52 ERA while surrendering six homers.

Aceves (suspension) was reinstated from the restricted list and released from his contract with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, Mark Feinsand of the New York Daily News reports.
Aceves completed a 50-game suspension for a second positive drug test, and with the Triple-A season almost over, the team decided it was in their best interest to part ways with the right-hander. He'll attempt to land another minor league contract with a spring training invite during the offseason.
Thu Jul 3 201413:23Aceves suspended 50 games for drug of abuse
Major League Baseball has suspended Alfredo Aceves for 50 games due to a positive test for a drug of abuse.
The exact drug he was taking is unknown. Aceves has been at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre since being designated for assignment by the Yankees on June 4. He had a rough 6.52 ERA in 19 1/3 innings this year for New York and probably won't return to the majors this year.

Yankees designated RHP Alfredo Aceves for assignment.
Aceves was sporting a 6.52 ERA in 19 1/3 innings of relief this season for the Yankees. The 31-year-old right-hander hasn't been an effective pitcher since 2011 but may still draw some interest on the waiver wire.

Mon May 12 201423:14Alfredo Aceves works in relief
Alfredo Aceves was used in relief Monday and gave up two runs in two-thirds of an inning against the Mets.
Manager Joe Girardi said yesterday that Aceves would likely start Wednesday, but he backed off that before today's game saying he was still available in the pen. And, clearly, Girardi made no effort to avoid using him in relief, considering that he was the first guy in today after Hiroki Kuroda's six innings. It looks like the Yankees will call up someone to start Wednesday.

Sun May 11 201412:48Alfredo Aceves to move into Yankees' rotation
Yankees manager Joe Girardi on Sunday listed Alfredo Aceves as the most likely candidate to take CC Sabathia's (knee) spot in the rotation.
Aceves has pitched well in relief since being promoted, allowing just one run over 7 1/3 innings. While his versatility is valuable, he's unlikely to be worthy of a roster spot in fantasy leagues.

According to Bob Nightengale of USA Today, Alfredo Aceves will be guaranteed $1.2 million if he makes the Orioles.
Aceves could max out at $3 million if he reaches certain incentives. The 31-year-old has struggled in recent seasons and always seems to find himself in the middle of drama, but his ability to start or relieve could come in handy for Baltimore.

Orioles signed RHP Alfredo Aceves to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.
Aceves appeared in just 11 games with the Red Sox last season and had an ugly 5.36 ERA in 69 relief appearances in 2012, but he has enjoyed some success in the past. While the 31-year-old can be a bit of a headache, he could have value as a swingman.

Fri Nov 15 201312:43Alfredo Aceves signing would be minors deal
Marc Carig of Newsday reports that if the Mets signed Alfredo Aceves, it would "probably" be on a minor league deal.
ESPN's Buster Olney reported Thursday that a pact between the two clubs was a "good possibility." With Matt Harvey out for the 2014 season following Tommy John surgery, the Mets could have room in their rotation for Aceves, who has always preferred to start. He's coming off back-to-back disappointing years, though, having posted a 5.21 ERA over 80 appearances for the Red Sox.

Aceves posted an ugly 4.86 ERA in 11 appearances (six starts) this past year for the Red Sox and was at times a headache for manager John Farrell. But he shouldn't cost much for a Mets team that is open to taking chances.
