Giants' Ryan Watson: Traded to San Francisco

The Orioles traded Watson to the Giants on Friday in exchange for cash, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Watson has posted a 2.38 ERA and 0.97 WHIP through 22.2 total innings between the Orioles' Double-A and Triple-A affiliates this season. The 26-year-old righty will now likely report to Triple-A Sacramento upon joining his new organization, and he could be promoted to make his MLB debut later this season if he continues to impress in the minors.
