The Giants never figured out a role for righty starter/reliever Kelly Downs. He pitched with the Giants from 1986-1992 and he was solid. Downs pitched in 177 games (110 starts) for the Giants and he was 47-38 with 1 save, a 3.64 ERA and a 1.28 WHIP. He threw 11 complete games with the Giants including 6 of them that were shutouts. He only gave up 705 hits in 762 innings while only whiffing 494 batters meaning that he threw strikes and let the defense help him.
