GOTT GOES TO SAN FRANCISCO

The San Francisco Giants acquired pitcher Trevor Gott from the Washington Nationals for cash.

What does it give the San Francisco Giants
The 26-year-old Gott struggled last season in 20 big-league appearances, but the Giants hope he can turn his fortunes around with them. He is expected to compete for a bullpen job out of spring training.

What does it give the Washington Nationals
The Nationals recently designated Gott for assignment, so they did well to at least get some money back from San Francisco in exchange for his services. The middle reliever needed a fresh start.

Fantasy impact
There is nothing to see here, as Gott has to first make the Giants out of spring training. Then, he needs to carve out an important role out of the bullpen. Keep an eye on him but do not draft him.
