Giants re-signed RHP Ramon Ramirez to a minor league contract.

Ramirez was released by the Giants last week, but the two sides quickly hammered out a new agreement. The 31-year-old right-hander is set to open the season with Triple-A Fresno and could be an option to join the major league bullpen eventually.

Giants released RHP Ramon Ramirez.

It's a bit of a surprise, as Ramirez appeared likely to earn a bullpen spot after being inked to a minor league deal last month. However, he reported late to camp due to a visa issue and then posted an 11.25 ERA over eight appearances. The owner of a career 3.32 ERA and 1.27 WHIP over seven seasons, Ramirez won't be out of a job long.

Ramon Ramirez is expected to report late to Giants' camp due to visa issues.

Just as long as it doesn't drag on too long, it shouldn't affect his bid for an Opening Day roster spot. Ramirez held a 4.24 ERA and 52/35 K/BB ratio over 63 2/3 innings with the Mets last season, but he enjoyed success out of the Giants' bullpen from 2010-2011.

Ramon Ramirez (hamstring) tossed a scoreless inning Wednesday in his second minor league rehab appearance with High-A St. Lucie.

That's better. Ramirez allowed three runs on five hits over one inning in his first appearance on Monday, but he's headed in the right direction. Barring any setbacks with his hamstring, he should rejoin the Mets' bullpen within the next few days.
