2/20/24 | SF Giants' Jung Hoo Lee shows off 'quick hands' in first live batting practice of spring. Stepping into the batter's box Monday for the first time this spring, Jung Hoo Lee was prepared for the velocity of pitchers in the major leagues, considerably harder than those in Korea. “Sean Hjelle, tall guy,” Lee said Tuesday morning in Korean, with Justin Han interpreting. The 6-foot-11 (and three-quarters) righty made for a unique look to give Lee as the first live pitching he faced this camp.

I imagine the shuttle back and forth from Sacramento to San Francisco wasn't particularly comfortable for the 6'11'' right-handed reliever. He was optioned to the River Cats and recalled back to the Giants five times (the max amount) over the 2023 season. Most of his appearances with the big league club came in April, throwing 12.1 innings over 9 games. He then pitched only 9.2 innings Source: https://www.mccoveychronicles.com/2023/11/16/23964... |

8/01/23 | Giants vs. Diamondbacks Gamethread. After a tense and disappointing extra-innings loss in the series opener, the San Francisco Giants and Arizona Diamondbacks return for the second game of their four-game series. Here's hoping for better results for the Giants. In chasing those better results, the Giants will have some new players. No one had “A.J. Pollock” on their bingo card as the only MLB player acquired at the deadline for San Francisco, but here we are. Pollock is in town, and should be activated for this game. Righty Sean Hjelle is also at Oracle Park, though that's presumably because scheduled starter Alex Cobb is sick and might not be able to play.

3/06/23 | Sean Hjelle is a cool dude. The Giants content team released a new video over the weekend, and I have to say, it's my favorite thing they've made: it's a video of a few of the team's players enjoying a night out at Topgolf. Maybe I'm biased as someone who quickly abandoned the pandemic idea of writing the next great American novel in favor of trying to be really bad at golf, but this video is all kinds of fun and you should watch it.
