Trevor Brown has entrenched himself as the Giants' backup catcher, but that hasn't stopped the team from inviting a veteran backstop to spring training.
Tim Federowicz, who played parts of four seasons with the Dodgers, indicated on Twitter on Tuesday that he has signed a deal with the Giants and will attend Spring Training with the club.
"Very excited about my new opportunity with the @SFGiants. Spring training can't come soon enough," Federowicz wrote.
