Partch signed a minor league contract with the Giants on Tuesday that includes an invite to spring training, C. Trent Rosecrans of the Cincinnati Enquirer reports. While the right-hander gave up just two hits and did not allow a run in seven innings with the Reds last season, he walked seven batters and sported a .118 BABIP, resulting in a 4.42 FIP.
