Giants sign Gaudin to minor-league contract

Right-hander Chad Gaudin has found a home with the ninth team in his 10-year MLB career, as the San Francisco Giants signed the reliever Friday.

Gaudin, who played for the Miami Marlins last season, was 4-2 with a 4.54 ERA after appearing in 46 games in 2012.

The 29-year-old has had two stints in the Bay Area, both with the Oakland Athletics from 2006-2008 and during the 2010 season.

According to Janie McCauley of the Associated Press, the minor-league deal will likely include an invite to spring training.
