Moves to 60-day IL
The Giants placed Wick (elbow) on the 60-day injured list Sunday, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis
The transaction was fully expected, as San Francisco signed Wick earlier this weekend knowing the right-hander would miss the entire 2026 season while recovering from Tommy John surgery. The 33-year-old's contract includes a club option for 2027, so the Giants will closely monitor his rehab before deciding whether to retain him this winter. Wick hasn't pitched in the majors since 2022 but was one of the top relievers in Japan's Nippon Professional Baseball this past season, turning in a 1.13 ERA, 0.90 WHIP and 58:13 K:BB over 47.2 innings.

Inks deal with Giants
Wick, who underwent Tommy John surgery in November, agreed to a one-year contract with the Giants on Friday that includes a club option for 2027, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis
The right-hander last pitched stateside at the Triple-A level in 2023 and had a 4.22 ERA across 64 appearances for the Cubs during the prior season, and he spent the past two years with the Yokohama Bay Stars of Nippon Professional Baseball. Wick pitched to a 1.13 ERA, 0.90 WHIP and 58:13 K:BB across 47.2 innings last year in Japan, but he won't be available in 2026 while he rehabs from surgery.
