The San Francisco Giants sign Clay Hensley
The Giants have signed 32-year old righty reliever/starter Clay Hensley to a 1-year deal. Hensley pitched in 37 games (9 starts) for the Marlins last year and he was 6-7 with a 5.19 ERA and a 1.36 WHIP. He has now pitched in 211 games (49 starts) in his first six years in the majors and he is 24-29 with 7 saves, a 3.94 ERA and a 1.35 WHIP. Hensley could compete with Barry Zito for the #5 spot in the rotation, but he’s more likely to work out of the pen in 2012 for the Giants.
