Roberto Gomez: Deal with Pirates voided
The Pirates have voided Gomez's minor-league contract due to concerns related to his physical, Bill Brink of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Gomez was set to attend Pittsburgh's major-league camp, but will now be tasked with finding a new home before the 2019 campaign. The 29-year-old will likely need to prove his health before latching on elsewhere. Gomez made five appearances for the Giants in 2018, allowing eight runs on 20 hits and a walk across 9.1 innings.

Gomez was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Saturday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Gomez was unavailable for the second game of Saturday's doubleheader after pitching 3.1 innings of relief in Game 1, so the Giants opted to shuttle him back to the minors in exchange for a fresh bullpen arm. He owns a 7.71 ERA across five appearances (9.1 innings) with the big club this season.

Gomez will return to the majors with Chris Stratton placed on paternity leave prior to Wednesday's game.

Giants' Roberto Gomez: Sent to minors
Gomez was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday, MLB.com reports.
The Giants will dispatch Gomez to the minors to clear a spot on the active roster for Tyler Beede, who is slated to make a spot start Wednesday against the Diamondbacks. With Jeff Samardzija (pectoral) on track to return from the disabled list next week when a fifth starter is next required, Beede's stay with the big club is expected to be brief and could pave the way for Gomez to rejoin the San Francisco bullpen in short order. After giving up five runs over his first two appearances of the season, Gomez was solid in relief in Monday's loss to the Diamondbacks, tossing two scoreless frames and striking out three batters.

Gomez has been recalled from Triple-A Sacramento and will be on the Giants' Opening Day roster, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
The Giants sent Gomez to the minors in mid-March but have apparently changed their mind and decided that the 28-year-old has earned the right to break camp with the big club. Gomez posted a 3.24 ERA over 8.1 innings of spring ball and is expected to work in long relief to begin the year.

Giants' Roberto Gomez: Sent to minors
Gomez was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Monday, Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Despite his respectable 3.68 ERA and 11 strikeouts across 7.1 Cactus League innings, Gomez was a long shot to crack the Opening Day roster. The 28-year-old made his major-league debut at the end of last season, but struggled to an 8.44 ERA and 1.88 WHIP across 5.1 innings, indicating he could use a bit more seasoning in the minors. He'll now rejoin the staff at Sacramento, where he posted a 4.07 ERA across 13 starts and 25 relief appearances in 2017.
