The San Francisco Giants sign Shingo Takatsu
The Giants have signed 40-year old righty reliever Shingo Takatsu to a minor league deal. “Mr. Zero” last pitched in the majors in 2005 with the Mets. Takatsu has now pitched in 99 games (0 starts) in his major league career and he is 8-6 with 27 saves, a 3.38 ERA and a 1.23 WHIP. This was a nice low risk move for the Giants as Takatsu might help them down the road this season.
