Haute 100 SF Update: Brian Wilson Could Return to the SF Giants
Closer Brian Wilson, formerly of the San Francisco Giants, could return according to manager Bruce Bochy.
ESPN’s Jim Bowden tweeted: “Bochy told us the Giants have not closed the door on Brian Wilson #SXM”.
Wilson managed only two innings last season before his season ended, requiring Tommy John surgery on his right elbow. Wilson is now 10 months removed from his surgery and the Giants haven’t tendered him a contract.
Though the Giants went on to win the World Series without him, Wilson was instrumental in the Giants’ championship 2010 season, posting a 1.81 ERA with a league-best 48 saves. He did not allow a single run in 11.2 innings during post-season play.
In Wilson’s absence last year, the Giants got 25 saves out of Santiago Castilla and 14 out of Sergio Romo. Casilla was relied upon in the ninth through July, but the Giants relied more and more on Romo as the season rolled into August. He was the go-to guy in the post-season and will be the closer for the 2013 season. If the Giants were to bring Wilson back, he would likely satisfy a middle relief role.
