1/19/2015: Signed a one-year, $4 million contract with a club option for 2016

Giants manager Bruce Bochy said Tuesday that Norichika Aoki could bat leadoff at times in 2015.
Angel Pagan will enter spring training as the Giants' primary leadoff hitter, but Bochy told reporters that he and his staff are open to using Aoki if he proves to be the better option. Aoki, who signed a one-year, $4 million contract with San Francisco last week, owns a .353 career on-base percentage in 438 major league games. Pagan's career OBP is .334.

Giants signed OF Norichika Aoki to a one-year, $4 million contract with a club option for 2016.
The option is for $5.5 million and Aoki has the chance to earn $1.5 million per year in incentives, so the contract could potentially max out at $12.5 million. The former Royal batted .285/.349/.360 last season with 17 steals, though he hit just one homer. The power doesn't figure to rebound at AT&T Park, but Aoki is a good bet for a nice average and decent stolen bases total. He'll be the Giants' main left fielder.

John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reports that the Giants have signed Norichika Aoki to a one-year contract.
It's a $4 million deal that includes a $5.5 million option for 2016. He can earn $1.5 million per year in incentives, so the contract could potentially max out at $12.5 million. Aoki hit just one homer last season in a move to pitcher-friendly Kauffman Stadium, but he batted a solid .285/.349/.360 overall. His power isn't likely to return at AT&T Park, but Aoki is a good bet for a nice average and around 20 stolen bases. He'll be the Giants' left fielder, pushing Gregor Blanco to a fourth outfielder role.

CBS Sports' Jon Heyman reports that the Orioles, Braves, and Giants are possible landing spots for free agent Norichika Aoki.
The Orioles have been linked to Aoki since the beginning of December, after Nelson Cruz signed with the Mariners. The Braves and Giants are relative newcomers to the mix. Pickings are slim at this point in the off-season, so Aoki and his career .353 on-base percentage look quite good despite his lack of power.

Angel Pagan
Sidelined
Angel Pagan will undergo season-ending back surgery on Thursday.
The operation will repair a bulging disc and also narrow the nerve canal in Pagan's lower back. He will need three months of rehab. Pagan first began experiencing back trouble in mid-June and missed two months of action before returning last month. He had a setback earlier in September and the Giants have decided it's best for him to go ahead and have the procedure. Gregor Blanco and Juan Perez will handle center field while Pagan is out. The 33-year-old hit .300/.342/.389 with three homers and 16 steals over 96 games this season.

Tim Hudson underwent surgery Tuesday to remove painful bone spurs from his right ankle.
It's the same ankle that Hudson fractured in 2013, but this latest procedure wasn't major and he should be fully recovered in about eight weeks -- right around the start of spring training games. The 39-year-old right-hander said in November that 2015 will be his final major league season. He posted a solid 3.57 ERA, 1.23 WHIP, and 120/34 K/BB ratio across 189 1/3 regular-season innings in 2014 for the World Series-champion Giants.
