The San Francisco Giants have not been shy this season about adding players who have been cast aside by other teams in hopes of finding a diamond in the rough.
They were at it again on Monday.
The latest move didn’t come in the form of a waiver claim or a trade for an MLB player, though. It came in an under-the-radar signing of a former top prospect out of the independent Atlantic League.
Giants signed OF/RHH Courtney Hawkins (25.6Y, 6'3" 245) out of the Atlantic League. A 2012 1R pick (13th overall) by CWS out of Mary Carroll HS (TX).
