Cal Mitchell News: Inks minors deal with SF

Mitchell signed a minor-league contract with the Giants on Tuesday.

Mitchell was released by the White Sox on Saturday after putting up a .259 OPS in 27 plate appearances at Triple-A Charlotte. He'll now get another chance in the Giants organization, but they'll bump him down to Double-A Richmond in an effort to jumpstart his bat against lower-level competition. Even if he finds a groove offensively, he doesn't project as anything more than minor-league depth for his new club.
