The Giants designated Wiemer for assignment Wednesday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
After being DFA'd by the Marlins in November and landing in San Francisco via trade, Wiemer will now go through the waiver process for the second time in as many months. His subtraction from the 40-man roster will create room for Jason Foley, who signed with the Giants on Tuesday.

Giants' Adrian Houser: Gets $22 million pact from Giants
Rotowire
The Giants signed Houser to a two-year, $22 million contract with a club option for 2028 on Tuesday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Houser showed more velocity and put together a bounce-back season in 2025, collecting a 3.31 ERA and 92:38 K:BB over 125 innings covering 21 starts between the White Sox and Rays. The veteran right-hander will turn 33 in February and lands in a favorable home environment in Oracle Park, but Houser's fantasy value will remain limited because of a lack of strikeouts.

Giants' Gregory Santos: Signs with Giants as NRI
Rotowire
Santos signed a minor-league contract with the Giants on Tuesday that includes an invitation to spring training, Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reports.
Santos first reached the majors with the Giants in 2021 before being traded to the White Sox three years ago. The 26-year-old had a tough time with injuries the past two seasons with the Mariners, making a total of only 16 appearances due to arm and knee problems. Santos is recovered from April arthroscopic right knee surgery and has a chance to win a spot in the Giants' bullpen.

Giants' Jason Foley: Inks deal with Giants
Rotowire
The Giants signed Foley (shoulder) to a one-year contract Tuesday.
Foley was non-tendered by the Tigers last month after missing most of the 2025 season following arthroscopic right shoulder surgery. He's not expected to be ready to pitch with the big club until midseason, per Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle. Foley will remain under team control through 2028, so it could be a sneaky signing if he can return to pre-surgery form. The 30-year-old led the Tigers with 28 saves during his last full season in 2024, posting a 3.15 ERA and 46:20 K:BB over 60 regular-season innings.

Giants' Daniel Susac: Shipped to Giants
Rotowire
The Twins selected Susac with the fourth pick in the Rule 5 Draft on Wednesday and then traded him to the Giants, Eric Longenhagen of FanGraphs reports.
Daniel's older brother Andrew was drafted by the Giants in 2011 and played his best two seasons in the majors with San Francisco in 2014 and 2015 as Buster Posey's backup, so it's understandable that Posey, the Giants president of baseball operations, would then trade for the younger Susac. The 24-year-old catcher was the No. 19 overall pick in 2022 and was left unprotected by the Athletics after he slashed .275/.349/.483 with 18 home runs and a 26.8 percent strikeout rate in 97 games in the Pacific Coast League. He is a fine defender, but Susac is a very aggressive hitter who will likely chase and strike out quite a bit if the Giants keep him on the big-league roster this season.
Giants' Casey Schmitt: Recovering from wrist surgery
Rotowire
Schmitt underwent surgery on his left wrist Tuesday and was given a rehab timeline of 8-to-10 weeks, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
The 26-year-old could be limited for the start of spring training in February but should have plenty of time to get back to full health before Opening Day. Schmitt played in 95 games for the Giants last season and clubbed 12 home runs with a .237/.305/.401 slash line in 348 plate appearances. He should be in the mix to start at second base to begin 2026 but is likely better suited for more of a utility role.
The Giants signed Hentges (shoulder/knee) to a one-year, $1.4 million contract Thursday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.
Non-tendered by the Guardians last week, Hentges missed the entire 2025 season while recovering from left shoulder surgery and also underwent arthroscopic right knee surgery in September. The expectation is that he will be ready for spring training. Hentges could be a weapon for the Giants if he can regain his pre-surgery form, as he held a 2.93 ERA and 155:42 K:BB over 138 regular-season innings from 2022-to-2024 after being moved to a relief role.
Brubaker signed a one-year contract with the Giants on Friday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Brubaker enjoyed his most successful season in the majors while working primarily as a reliever in 2025, logging a 3.77 ERA and 1.22 WHIP over 28.2 innings between the Yankees and Giants. The 32-year-old righty will likely compete for a rotation spot during spring training, though he could also be used as a long reliever again if he misses the cut.

Giants' Joey Wiemer: Lands in San Francisco
Rotowire
The Giants acquired Wiemer from the Marlins on Friday in exchange for cash considerations, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Wiemer had been designated for assignment by Miami earlier this week and is now on the move to a new organization. The 26-year-old hasn't seen extensive action in the majors since his rookie year in 2023, having bounced around to a few teams since then. Wiemer will compete for a spot on the Giants' roster and does not have minor-league options remaining.

Giants' Andrew Knizner: Designated for assignment
Rotowire
The Giants designated Knizner for assignment Friday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.
The Giants didn't want to pay Knizner a raise in arbitration, so he will become a free agent if he passes through waivers. Knizner, who turns 31 in February, slashed .221/.299/.299 over 33 contests with San Francisco in 2025.
The Giants signed Ramos to a minor-league contract with an invitation to spring training Monday, Chase Ford of Milb Central reports.
Ramos split the 2025 season between Double- and Triple-A in the Pirates organization, putting up a 2.64 ERA and 68:24 K:BB over 64.2 innings. The 25-year-old has yet to pitch in the majors but will compete during spring training for a spot in the Giants' bullpen.
