Selman (1-0) earned the win Tuesday against the Dodgers after tossing a scoreless one-third of an inning, allowing one hit.
EDGE Analysis
Selman entered the game with the Giants down 8-7 in the top of the 11th inning and, even though Cody Bellinger welcomed him with a single, he shut the door when Max Muncy grounded out softly with runners in first and second. This was Selman's first win of the season and he is now on a streak of three straight scoreless appearances, allowing just one hit and walking two in two innings over that stretch.

Selman was recalled by the Giants on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Selman will take the bullpen spot that had belonged to Sam Coonrod, who landed on the injured list with a strained right lat in a corresponding move. Selman posted a 4.35 ERA in his 10.1-inning big-league debut last season.

Selman was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Friday, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
He will be banished to the minors for the second time in four days, and did not get into a game during these two very brief stints. Travis Bergen (shoulder) was activated and will take Selman's spot in the bullpen.

Selman was promoted to the majors Thursday, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Shaun Anderson (blister) was placed on the 10-day injured list to make room for Selman's return. The 28-year-old will look to improve upon a rough four-game stretch in which the left-hander surrendered three runs on four hits across four innings to begin the month of August. The southpaw has had plenty of success with Triple-A Sacramento -- posting a 3-1 record with a 1.35 ERA, 0.75 WHIP and 65:13 K:BB over 40 innings -- and will try to regroup in his second stint in the major-league bullpen.

Selman was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis

Selman allowed a run on a hit and a walk in one inning pitched in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
Selman only tossed three pitches before giving up a two-run home run to Rockies infielder Ryan McMahon, allowing an inherited runner to score as well. Selman has given up a run in each of his two relief appearances since being brought up as bullpen depth for the Giants after their trade-deadline purge. The southpaw is likely to remain in middle relief while he's up in the majors.

The Giants selected Selman's contract from Triple-A Sacramento on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
After the Giants shipped out three relievers (Sam Dyson, Mark Melancon and Drew Pomeranz) in deadline-day deals, Selman will join the big club to help restore depth in the bullpen. The 28-year-old lefty arrives in the majors for the first time with some level of intrigue after dazzling out of the bullpen at Sacramento this season. Over his 40 innings in the Pacific Coast League, Selman posted a 1.35 ERA, 0.75 WHIP and 65:13 K:BB.
