Stassi has spent ten years in the major leagues, the first six with Houston before moving to the Angels mid-season in 2019. He spent the remainder of 2019 and 2020-2022 in Anaheim. In his final two seasons there, he was the primary catcher. The Giants are looking to get a healthy Stassi behind the plate for the big league team soon.

After a hip injury and a personal matter, Stassi was signed by the White Sox last offseason. He was competing for a job on the MLB roster when he re-aggravated the injury. The White Sox eventually cut him, leaving him as a free agent.

Giants must continue improvements elsewhere

Stassi can compete for the backup catcher role for the Giants. Patrick Bailey is 25 years old and won the Gold Glove last season, so he will likely not be replacing him. Curt Casali played 41 games behind the dish but is a free agent. Tom Murphy, Blake Sabol, and Logan Porter are the other catcher under contract.
