The Giants have requested unconditional release waivers on corner infielder J.D. Davis after he went unclaimed on outright waivers, tweets Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area. Once he clears, he’ll be a free agent. Davis won an arbitration hearing over the Giants earlier in the offseason, which awarded him a $6.9MM salary. However, under the terms of the collective bargaining agreement, that sum isn’t fully guaranteed until Opening Day. By cutting him now, the Giants only owe him 30 days of termination pay — about $1.11MM.
More to come.
