The San Francisco Giants claimed left-hander Reiver Sanmartin off waivers from the Cincinnati Reds on Thursday. The move provides a fresh start for Sanmartin, who had spent the last six seasons as part of the Reds organization. He appeared in one big-league game during the 2025 campaign.

Sanmartin, who turns 30 in April, spent most of last season at Triple-A Louisville, where he tallied a 2.67 ERA and a 1.24 WHIP. He also posted a 55:18 K:BB ratio across 67.1 innings at the Triple-A level.

The Cincinnati Reds optioned Reiver Sanmartin to Triple-A Louisville on Wednesday.

As expected, Sanmartin pitched in Wednesday's game after Nick Lodolo was scratched due to illness. He allowed one unearned run on two hits over 1.2 innings. In a corresponding move, the Reds recalled Lyon Richardson from Triple-A to add a fresh arm to the bullpen.
