Forgotten SF Giants slugger resurfaces with Chicago Cubs on one-year deal

The name Tyler Austin has probably not crossed the minds of many SF Giants fans in quite some time, but the forgotten Giants slugger is back in the big leagues after a sojourn in Japan as he has signed a major league deal with the Chicago Cubs.

The last time Austin appeared in the big leagues was in 2019 with the Milwaukee Brewers. Earlier that season he was with the Giants and played in 70 games with the team.
