Giants acquire Luke Williams, who had memorable first MLB start

▤ Summary

The Giants completed a trade with the Philadelphia Phillies on Sunday afternoon for a versatile, young utility player. San Francisco acquired infielder/outfielder Luke Williams from the Phillies, in exchange for minor league pitcher Will Toffey and cash considerations. To clear room for Williams on the roster, the Giants placed newly-signed pitcher Matthew Boyd on the 60-Day Injured List. The team also announced that outfielder Austin Dean cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Sacramento. The 25-year-old Williams made his major league debut with the Phillies last season and had quite the memorable first career start.
