2012 : Signed a minor-league contract.

Brad Penny will make a prorated salary of $500,000 if he's added to the big league roster.
The Giants see Penny as a possible reliever with Brian Wilson (Tommy John surgery) out for the season and Guillermo Mota serving a 100-game suspension. According to CSNBayArea.com's Andrew Baggarly, the ''target for Penny to join the team'' is May 30. Penny is expected to report to extended spring training Monday, with first minor league assignment at Triple-A Fresno.

Giants signed RHP Brad Penny to a minor league contract.
Penny was recently released from his contract with the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks of Japan's Pacific League so that he could return to the United States. He'll report to extended spring training on Monday and could eventually be an option for the Giants' bullpen. The 33-year-old right-hander had an ugly 5.30 ERA and 74/62 K/BB ratio across 181 2/3 innings last year for the Tigers.

Andy Martino of the New York Daily News reports that Brad Penny is not on the Mets' radar.
Penny was released by the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks of Japan's Pacific League after making just one start with the club. Buster Olney of ESPN.com reported Tuesday morning that the veteran right-hander has already drawn interest from MLB clubs as a starter and reliever. It likely won't take more than a minor league deal to sign him, but the pitching-starved Mets won't be in the mix.

Buster Olney of ESPN.com reports that MLB teams have expressed interest in Brad Penny as a starter and reliever.
Penny was released by the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks of Japan's Pacific League after making just one start with the club. While he complained of shoulder soreness, no structural damage was found, and it's increasingly clear that he just didn't want to pitch there. The 33-year-old right-hander had an ugly 5.30 ERA and 74/62 K/BB ratio across 181 2/3 innings last year for the Tigers and will almost certainly have to settle for a minor league deal.

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) began swinging a fungo bat right-handed on Friday.
Sandoval is slowly increasing baseball activities after undergoing surgery earlier this month to repair a fractured left hamate bone. While he has begun swinging a bat, including tee work, Giants manager Bruce Bochy says he's still a couple of weeks away.

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.
