Javier Lopez and the Giants have agreed to an $8.5 million, two-year contract, according to the Associated Press.
The 34-year-old was set to hit free agency before San Francisco locked him up. He'll earn $4.25 million in each of the next two seasons after earning $2.375 million in 2011. Lopez is 7-2 with a 2.38 ERA in 97 appearances since being acquired from Pittsburgh in 2010. The Giants must decide by Monday whether to exercise the $5 million contract option on fellow left-handed reliever Jeremy Affeldt, who had a 2.63 ERA in 67 appearances this season. Affeldt, who sustained a season-ending hand injury in September, has a $500,000 buyout.

With Brian Wilson in needed of the day off, Javier Lopez pitched a scoreless ninth Thursday and picked up his first save since 2006.
Sergio Romo started the ninth, but he was pulled following Ryan Roberts leadoff single. It was the prudent move, as the Diamondbacks were set to send up the lefty-swinging Miguel Montero, a pinch-hitter in the pitcher's spot and then two more lefties in Kelly Johnson and Gerardo Parra. Lopez retired the three lefties, allowing a single to Chris Young in the middle, to protect a one-run lead for his fifth career save.

Javier Lopez will make $2.375 million on his new one-year contract.
The Giants and Lopez agreed to the sum on Thursday, avoiding the need for an arbitration hearing. The 33-year-old dominated left-handed hitters last year and will again operate in a lefty specialist role in 2011.

Giants and LHP Javier Lopez avoided arbitration Thursday by agreeing to a one-year contract.
Terms weren't disclosed, but Lopez requested $2.875 million and was offered $2 million when arbitration figures were exchanged Tuesday. Lopez, 33, was fantastic down the stretch for the Giants last season and held left-handed batters to a measly .162/.250/.242 batting line for the year.

Freddy Sanchez
D.L.
Freddy Sanchez has reported improvement since receiving an epidural injection in his lower back, but he's yet to be cleared to resume baseball-related activities.
It's pointless to attach a timetable to Sanchez at this point. He's still not able to make pain-free throws from second base due to his surgically-repaired shoulder, and his back might be an even bigger issue at this point. The Giants are seeking middle infield help from outside the organization.

Pablo Sandoval (hand) wrote on his Twitter account that he took 25 swings off a tee Wednesday with no pain.
It was his first time swinging off a tee since undergoing surgery earlier this month to repair a fractured left hamate bone. He still has some work to do before going out on a minor league rehab assignment, but it's possible he'll be ready to rejoin the Giants in the next two to three weeks.

Eric Surkamp has experienced a setback in his recovery from a strained left elbow tendon.
When asked Thursday whether Surkamp might need surgery Giants manager Bruce Bochy replied simply: "Obviously there's concern." The 24-year-old left-hander has been out of commission since the end of spring training and might not return this season.

Guillermo Mota
Suspended
Guillermo Mota will appeal his suspension for a second positive test for a performance-enhancing drug.
However, as second-time offender, he must begin serving the suspension immediately. Mota tested positive for Clenbuterol, which is used mostly as a weight-loss supplement. The veteran righty has a 5.06 ERA and 9/4 K/BB ratio in 10 2/3 innings this season.

Dan Runzler
D.L.
Giants placed LHP Dan Runzler on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to March 26, with a strained lat muscle.
Runzler aggravated an injury from last year earlier this month and was given a 4-6 week timetable to recover. It appears he might be a little ahead of that projection, but he might be optioned to Triple-A once he's healthy.

Brian Wilson
D.L.
Brian Wilson (elbow) considers himself ahead of schedule in his recovery from Tommy John surgery.
Wilson, who underwent the procedure in late April, fully expects to be ready for the start of next season. "I’ll be closing unless someone throws a complete game," Wilson said. "Which would be sweet." It's good that Wilson is so upbeat, but he's obviously got a long way to go before we can identify a firm timetable on him.
