Giants trade for RHP Jake Barrett
Charles LeClaire-USA TODAY SportsThe Giants sent some of their Raiders money to the Diamondbacks in exchange for reliever Jake Barrett, a hard-throwing right-hander who has had an unremarkable major league career so far. In 93.1 innings across three seasons, he’s struck out 88, walked 45, and allowed 42 earned runs (4.05 ERA / 4.76 FIP).
Here’s a scouting report on the lad from a person I should probably hire:
Giants acquired RHP Jake Barrett (27.6Y, 6’2” 240) from AZ for cash. He was a 2012 3R pick by AZ out of Arizona State. He has 93.1 IP in the majors (82H 45BB 88K 92ERA-). 94-97 FB, with a good slider, control issues.
