Giants Acquire Former Dodger World Series Champ, Add to Opening Day Roster

The Giants continued adding to their collection of former Los Angeles Dodgers this morning with the addition of infielder/outfielder/pinch hitter Matt Beaty. He was acquired from the Kansas City Royals for cash considerations.

MLB insider Bob Nightengale was among those to report the news.

Beaty signed a minor league deal with the Royals this past offseason but KC had no spot for him to play on the field. With the Giants, he may have a path to some playing time following the departure of long time first baseman Brandon Belt, who signed with the Blue Jays in the offseason.
