Athletics trade Cal Stevenson to Giants for cash considerations
OAKLAND — It appears Cal Stevenson’s next shot at the big leagues will be with a Bay Area team, but it won’t be the Athletics.
Playing with the Triple-A Las Vegas Aviators, Stevenson was hitting .348 at the time of his DFA with two doubles. Had Stevenson not been sent to the Giants, he would have been free to sign with the A’s or any other team after clearing waivers. Right-handed reliever Trevor May, a free agent signee who was seen as a potential closer, has been placed on the 15-day injured list due to “issues related to anxiety.”
“It’s the right thing to do for someone who is struggling in terms of anxiety, what he’s dealing with,” A’s manager Mark Kotsay said. “We completely support him. It’s real. I don’t want to go deeply into it. It’s a personal issue, but for Trevor, this is the right thing.”
