The San Francisco Giants have acquired 29-year-old right-handed pitcher Mitch White from the Toronto Blue Jays in exchange for cash considerations. This move comes as the Giants look to bolster their pitching roster following the transfer of Alex Cobb to the 60-day injured list due to ongoing setbacks in his recovery from hip surgery. Cobb's recent elbow and shoulder issues have also been highlighted as factors necessitating his extended time off the field. The trade was facilitated after the Blue Jays designated Mitch White for assignment earlier in the week, following the activation of pitchers Romano and Swanson.
