The San Francisco Giants have signed 28-year-old outfielder Will Brennan to a one-year Major League contract, adding depth to their outfield ahead of Spring Training. Brennan, a left-handed hitter who spent the past four seasons with the Cleveland Guardians, is expected to be fully healthy after offseason surgeries. The move clears space on the 40-man roster by placing pitcher Rowan Wick on the 60-day injured list.
