Giants Sign Dontrelle Willis

The San Francisco Giants' official Twitter feed reports that the club signed left-hander Dontrelle Willis to a minor-league contract with Triple-A Fresno on Wednesday. The Giants are Willis' third team this season, after he was designated for assignment by both the Tigers and Diamondbacks within the last two months. No matter where he has played in 2010, Willis' struggles have continued --- he has a 5.62 ERA in 15 appearances (13 of them starts) and only an 0.84 K-BB ratio.

We had heard that the Brewers, Mets and Marlins all had some degree of interest in Willis when he was first DFA'ed by Detroit, though Willis' stated preference to play near the west coast may have been a factor in his signing with the Giants. Should Willis get promoted to the majors, he will be playing just outside his hometown of Oakland.

PM should be proud.

He should just convert to a hitter.

I can't stand watching him struggle as a pitcher anymore.

Nice sign by the Giants WOOO! If he really wants to pitch for the Giants, he should convert to bullpen IMO.

It's not really a nice signing, if he makes it to the majors he will do more harm then good.

Bad signing, this guy is soooo over the hill. And the sad part about it all is that he is still like only 28 years old. I dont know why they would sign him, considering they already have a great pitching staff.

 

[Big Bid'Ness]

I can see him on the 40 man roster if he makes it to september with the team lol.

just another fail for his career. hes rich enough. call it quits and go try to get a coaching job at some local little league.

IDK why you say that. It's not like he's on the Giants team itself...

I'm more worried about him sucking up the Fresno Grizzlies. They're 53-39, 2 games ahead of Sacramento in the division...

Man, I didn't want him in the Giants system either
