    Giants optioned RHP Sean Hjelle to Triple-A Sacramento.
    The move comes less than a week after Hjelle was accused of heinous acts of abuse by his wife in social media posts. He’ll head to the minors with Carson Seymour recalled from Triple-A to take his place on the active roster.

    Sean Hjelle has been accused of abuse by his wife in a TikTok post.
    Caroline Hjelle made the serious allegations on Friday in a TikTok post. The Giants addressed the situation directly on Saturday afternoon with a team statement. “We are aware of these serious allegations. We have been in contact with MLB. These type of allegations fall under their jurisdiction and we won’t be commenting further.” The 28-year-old could face discipline under the league’s domestic violence, sexual assault and child abuse policy once a league investigation concludes. It’s unclear whether he’ll be placed on administrative leave at this time or if the league has launched an official investigation.

    Sean Hjelle did a nice job being pressed into emergency action against the Dodgers on Sunday night, giving up two runs on three hits over 3 2/3 innings of work.
    Hjelle piled up five strikeouts on the night while issuing a pair of walks. The 28-year-old hurler drew the unexpected start after Sunday’s scheduled starter, Kyle Harrison, was dealt to the Red Sox just before first pitch. He allowed a run on a sacrifice fly in the opening inning and then served up a solo homer to Tommy Edman in the second inning. He threw 54 pitches (33 strikes) in the game, so expect him to be unavailable out of the bullpen for at least the next couple of days.
  • SF Starting Pitcher #45
    Kyle Harrison was scratched from Sunday’s night scheduled start against the Dodgers as he’s believed to be included in the rumored deal with the Red Sox for Rafael Devers.
    It sounds like the Giants will now go with a bullpen game on Sunday with Sean Hjelle warming up in the team’s bullpen and expected to start the game. With Justin Verlander (pectoral) likely to rejoin the Giants’ rotation during the upcoming week, it had been anticipated that Harrison would lose his spot in the Giants’ rotation. Now it sounds like he’s heading to the Red Sox where he’ll have an opportunity to stick at the big league level. Stay tuned.

    Hjelle returns to San Francisco’s bullpen mix ahead of Tuesday’s game against the Padres with Jordan Hicks hitting the injured list with toe inflammation. The 28-year-old righty will be making his season debut when he gets into a game. He made a career-high 58 relief appearances last year for the Giants.

    Giants optioned RHP Sean Hjelle to Triple-A Sacramento.
    It’s another indication that spring standout Landen Roupp is going to make San Francisco’s season-opening roster since he projects to take over Hjelle’s long relief workload. The towering 27-year-old made a career-high 58 appearances last year for the Giants and figures to be back in the majors at some point in the near future.

    Giants activated RHP Sean Hjelle from bereavement list.
    Hjelle was away from the team while dealing with an issue more important than baseball for a few days. He had a 3.88 ERA and 52 strikeouts in 51 innings for the Giants this year. Hjelle will continue to pitch in long relief out of the bullpen for San Francisco.

    Giants activated RHP Sean Hjelle from the 15-day injured list.
    Hjelle rejoins San Francisco’s pitching staff after missing the opening three weeks of the season due to a right elbow strain. The towering 26-year-old righty wrapped up a minor league rehab assignment earlier this week and returns ahead of Saturday’s showdown against the Diamondbacks. He figures to pitch in long relief out of San Francisco’s bullpen for now.

    Sean Hjelle (elbow) will begin a minor league rehab assignment on Friday with Single-A San Jose.
    The 26-year-old was placed on the 15-day injured list with an elbow injury prior to the start of the regular season. He’ll continue to ramp up to get back with the Giants but could see some more action in the minors before he’s called up.
