Giants Sign Brent Honeywell Jr. to Minor-League Deal With Spring Invite Expected

The non-roster pact offers the oft-injured right-hander a spring audition after a year away.

Overview

  • The agreement, first reported by MassLive’s Chris Cotillo, is a minor-league contract with an expected invitation to big-league camp.
  • Honeywell was non-tendered by the Dodgers after the 2024 season and did not pitch in 2025.
  • In 2024 he logged a 2.63 ERA over 37.2 innings for the Pirates and Dodgers, but his strikeout rate was unusually low and advanced metrics signaled regression risk.
  • He made three postseason appearances for Los Angeles, including a 4 2/3-inning NLCS relief outing praised by teammates, though he yielded nine earned runs across 8 2/3 playoff frames.
  • San Francisco, reshaping a thinned bullpen after trades and injuries, will give Honeywell a low-cost look as he tries to earn a roster spot this spring.
