Giants sign Howry

Howry, 35, is a power pitcher who has pitched for the White Sox, Red Sox, Indians and, most recently the Cubs. The Giants had interest in Howry early on this offseason but acted only after the Cubs declined to offer him arbitration. As such, the Giants will not lose a draft pitch for signing him.

:roll:

Here's to you Bob Howry, you good for nothing idiot. Without you on the team Lou will be forced to use a reliever that actual can locate his pitches and not give up leads.

"We feel that Howry brings a tremendous amount of talented experience to our bullpen. He's pitched in big games and has proven to be both durable and very effective. With the previous addition of left-hander Jeremy Affeldt, we are pleased to have strengthened our 'pen, and these two veterans will help provide experience to our younger pitchers. We look forward to having Howry on our staff."
