Triple-A Sacramento activated Guzman (elbow) from its injured list Thursday and assigned him to Double-A Richmond. Guzman debuted for the Double-A club Friday, working one inning while giving up one earned run on one hit and one walk. The 26-year-old right-hander previously had a cup of coffee in the majors with the Marlins in 2020 but has been sidelined for most of the 2021 and 2022 seasons due to right elbow injuries.

Guzman (elbow) made his most recent rehab appearance with High-A Eugene on July 8. He allowed two walks and struck out one in one-third of an inning versus Hillsboro. Guzman has been rehabbing in the lower levels of the minors for the last month. He previously covered six innings in five appearances with Single-A San Jose, posting a 3.00 ERA, 2.00 WHIP and 6:5 K:BB. The right-hander will likely need a few more rehab appearances, though it's expected he'll ultimately land Triple-A Sacramento's bullpen once he's up to speed.

Guzman (elbow) struck out one and allowed one hit and no walks over two scoreless innings in a rehab outing Tuesday with the Giants' rookie-level Arizona Complex League affiliate. The appearance was Guzman's first in affiliated ball since August 2021 after he was sidelined to begin the current campaign while recovering from an elbow injury. The Giants signed Guzman to a two-year, minor-league deal in January with the expectation that he would spend most of the first season in rehab mode, so the organization is unlikely to rush him to its top affiliate in Sacramento. Once he's fully ramped up, Guzman will likely serve as a multi-inning relief option for the Triple-A club.

Guzman's (elbow) agency announced Jan. 15 via its personal Instagram account that the right-hander signed a two-year, minor-league contract with the Giants. Guzman will move on to the fourth organization of his career after he signed with the Astros as a teenager in 2014 and then was traded to the Yankees and Marlins in 2016 and 2017, respectively. The 26-year-old appeared in two games in the big leagues in 2021, but Miami outrighted him off its 40-man roster in late October after he had been sidelined for the preceding two months with a right elbow injury. The Giants' decision to bring Guzman aboard on a two-year deal could hint that he may have undergone an offseason surgery on the elbow, putting his availability for the start of the 2022 season in question. San Francisco is unlikely to provide much clarity on Guzman's situation until the lockout ends and manager Gabe Kapler is available to speak to the media again.

Guzman (elbow) has been reinstated from the 60-day injured list and outrighted off the 40-man roster, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports. Guzman had been out since mid-August with an elbow issue. Players can't remain on the injured list over the offseason, so the Marlins had to either add him to the 40-man roster or outright him. They went the latter route, perhaps unsurprisingly for a pitcher who has given up eight runs in just 2.2 career MLB innings.
