GIANTS TEAM NEWS CENTER

Tyson Ross (R) - SP

San Francisco Giants

Ross (elbow) felt good after throwing an inning Friday against Colorado, Evan Webeck of The Mercury News reports.

Added Feb 29 2:38 pm (EST)

Friday's outing was Ross' first game action since being shut down due to ulnar neuritis back in May. He's in camp with the Giants as a non-roster invitee and has a shot at a rotation spot if healthy, but expectations should probably be low for an oft-injured veteran who has just one season with an ERA below 6.00 in the last four years.

W. Venable - RF

LA

Jon Heyman of MLB Network reports that the Red Sox have interviewed Cubs coach Will Venable for their managerial opening.

Venable joined the Cubs' front office in 2017 after retiring as a player and then served as the team's first base coach in 2018 and 2019 before shifting to third base coaching duties in 2020. The 37-year-old graduate of Princeton University should eventually get a chance to manage somewhere, even if he doesn't ultimately land the job in Boston. Heyman notes that Alex Cora "has been viewed as the favorite" coming off his one-year suspension related to the Astros' sign-stealing operation from 2017. Dodgers coach George Lombard and Pirates coach Don Kelly are among the other known managerial candidates for the Red Sox.

J. Harrison - 3B

WSH

Nationals re-signed INF/OF Josh Harrison to a one-year contract.

Jesse Dougherty of the Washington Post hears that it carries a $1 million base salary and up to $250,000 in incentives based on total plate appearances. Harrison joined the Nationals this past July 27, a week after getting released by the Phillies, and went on to post a .278/.352/.418 batting line with three home runs in 33 games while appearing defensively at second base, third base, first base, left field, and right field. The 33-year-old former All-Star figures to reprise his role as a super-utilityman for Washington in 2021.

B. Snell - SP

TB

Blake Snell fanned nine batters while yielding two runs over 4 2/3 frames Wednesday in the Rays' 6-4 win over the Dodgers in Game 2 of the World Series.

Snell entered the fifth inning having issued just two free passes and that’s it. He retired the first two batters of that frame, but a two-out walk to Enrique Hernandez was followed by a two-run blast by Chris Taylor. Another walk and a single after that spelled the end of Snell’s night. Snell’s stuff was nasty for most of the night and the final line still looked pretty good. He continues to struggle to pitch deep into games, though, as he hasn’t gone six innings in a start since July of 2019. That’s partly by design, of course, as the Rays often go to their bullpen quickly and also Snell has had some health issues. Tampa Bay will send Charlie Morton to the mound versus Walker Buehler in Game 3 on Friday with the series knotted up 1-1.

T. Gonsolin - SP

LA

Tony Gonsolin allowed just one run but was pulled after 1 1/3 innings Wednesday in the Dodgers' loss to the Rays.

It was essentially an opener assignment for Gonsolin, which didn’t come as a surprise. The one run he gave up came off the bat of Brandon Lowe, who launched an opposite-field home run with one out in the first inning. Gonsolin was removed in the second inning with a runner at third and one out, but he avoided an additional run being charged to his ledger after a fielder’s choice and a caught stealing. He has made three appearances this postseason but has gone more than two innings in just one of them, yielding eight runs over 7 2/3 frames. The Dodgers wound up using seven pitchers in this one and only one of them recorded more than four outs (Alex Wood recorded six).

D. Castillo - RP

TB

Diego Castillo struck out the only batter he faced to nail down a save Wednesday in the Rays' win over the Dodgers.

Aaron Loup was sent back out for the bottom of the ninth inning after striking out Cody Bellinger to end the eighth. He got another strikeout and a flyout before manager Kevin Cash turned to Castillo, who set Chris Taylor down on a check-swing strike three to seal the victory. It's his third save during this postseason, matching Pete Fairbanks for the team lead.

J. Urías - SP

LA

Julio Urias will start for the Dodgers in Game 4 of the World Series on Saturday versus the Rays.

Urias was the obvious choice after he wasn't used in relief during Game 2 on Wednesday. The left-hander has been fantastic this postseason, allowing just one earned run over 16 innings while boasting a 16/3 K/BB ratio. Walker Buehler is starting Game 3 for the Dodgers and they'll go back to Clayton Kershaw for Game 5.

B. Lowe - 2B

TB

Brandon Lowe broke out of his slump with a pair of home runs as the Rays downed the Dodgers in Game 2 of the World Series on Wednesday.

Lowe entered this one hitting just .107 (6-for-56) so far this postseason, but he ripped a long opposite-field blast off of Tony Gonsolin as the second batter of the game to open the scoring. He wasn't done there, belting another one to left off of Dustin May in the fifth inning which hit off the top of the wall and went into the seats for a two-run shot. The Rays' offense as a whole has been struggling, so getting Lowe going would obviously be huge for their chances this series.

C. Taylor - 2B

LA

Chris Taylor hit a two-run homer in Game 2 of the World Series on Wednesday.

Blake Snell had not allowed a hit yet before Taylor took him deep with two out in the bottom of the fifth inning with an opposite-field shot. It's Taylor's first dinger of this postseason. He struck out in all three of his other plate appearances, including on a check-swing to end the game.
