Tristan Beck

Beck was the headliner of the July 2019 trade which sent Mark Melancon to the Braves. He finished that year out strongly but has failed to distinguish himself since then, most recently posting a 5.25 ERA and 116:36 K:BB across 111.1 frames between Double- and Triple-A in 2022. Despite the mediocre year and Beck slated to turn 27 in June, the Giants chose to add him to their 40-man roster this offseason to keep him away from the Rule 5 Draft. Beck typically induces ground balls at a high rate and has struck out over a batter per innings during his time in the minors, but he still doesn't look like more than a swingman type at this point.
