The San Francisco Giants and former Phillies pitcher Drew Smyly have agreed to a one-year contract worth $4 million, with $250,000 in incentives, according to Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic. The Giants placed Smyly on their 40-man roster and has a chance to compete for a job in the starting rotation.
Smyly signed a contract with the Phillies on July 21, filling a need in the back-end of the rotation with Arrieta, Velasquez, Pivetta and Eflin all struggling.
