Vincent exited Tuesday's game against the Marlins with an apparent neck injury, Kerry Crowley of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

EDGE Analysis

The official cause of his removal has yet to be announced, but Vincent appeared to be motioning to his neck area as he left the field. The 32-year-old should be considered day-to-day until more is known on the injury.

Vincent (0-2) took the loss Tuesday as the Giants were toppled 7-3 by the Blue Jays, giving up three runs on four hits in one inning of work.

EDGE Analysis

The first hit he gave up was launched 438 feet to left-center field by Vlad Guerrero Jr., the rookie's first big-league homer, and things didn't get much better from there for Vincent. He now sports a 3.24 ERA and 25:6 K:BB through 25 innings, but his shaky outing in his first appearance as an opener this season might ensure he returns to a lower-leverage role in middle relief.

Vincent will open Tuesday's game against the Blue Jays, Kerry Crowley of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Vincent is expected to toss the first inning or two before making way for the primary pitcher. Tyler Beede was in line to start Tuesday's matchup prior to this update, so it's possible he'll be deployed to toss the bulk of the innings.

Vincent tossed two scoreless innings while giving up a walk and striking out a pair in a 4-1 loss to the Pirates on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Vincent turned in his fourth consecutive scoreless outing, bringing his ERA down to 2.03 in the process. The 32-year-old has been serving as the Giants' long reliever, leading the club in appearances (nine), innings (13.1) and multi-inning games (four). Despite Vincent's hot start to the season, the soft-tossing righty's fantasy value is dampened by a pedestrian strikeout rate (6.8 K/9) and zero holds.

The Giants informed Vincent on Friday that he won a spot on the team's Opening Day roster, Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Vincent hasn't turned in an overly impressive camp, but manager Bruce Bochy suggested the right-hander's strong track record at the big-league level weighed heavily into him making the roster. Over parts of seven seasons in the majors, Vincent has compiled a 3.17 ERA while striking out a batter per inning.

Vincent signed a minor-league contract with the Giants on Thursday which includes an invitation to spring training, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Vincent put together another solid year for Seattle in 2018 -- posting a 3.99 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 56:15 K:BB across 56.1 innings of relief -- but the Mariners decided to outright him after the season rather than pay him in his final year of arbitration. The veteran reliever owns a career 3.17 ERA and 9.0 K/9 across parts of seven major-league seasons, so he seems like a good bet to win an Opening Day bullpen gig with the Giants.

Vincent elected to become a free agent Friday, Greg Johns of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Vincent refused his outright assignment to Triple-A Tacoma after passing through waivers untouched, making him a free agent for the first time in his career. The 32-year-old reliever posted a 3.99 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 56:15 K:BB across 56.1 innings of relief with the Mariners in 2018. Vincent owns a career 3.17 ERA and 9.0 K/9 across seven major-league seasons.

Vincent fired two shutout innings with one hit and one walk allowed while striking out one against the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

With scheduled starter Mike Leake (illness) a late scratch, Seattle turned to Vincent for his first career start. The 32-year-old pitched adequately over the two frames, but it's unlikely he'll be turned to for any further starts unless the Mariners elect to go the "bullpen" game route. Vincent has a 3.98 ERA with 39:12 K:BB in 43 innings.

Vincent, just activated earlier in the day from the disabled list, allowed two earned runs on three hits over a third of an inning in a loss to the Red Sox on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Vincent's return from a groin injury that had sidelined him since May 27 was far from a rousing success. The veteran was hit hard by a red-hot Red Sox offense, giving up a two-run home run to the first batter he faced, J.D. Martinez, and a triple to Mitch Moreland. Moreland eventually came home on a Xander Bogaerts infield single, making it a forgettable outing overall. Despite the hiccup Friday, Vincent is slated to return to the high-usage middle relief role he enjoyed prior to his injury, one that had already afforded him 22 innings across 25 appearances prior to his DL stay.

Vincent (groin) was reinstated from the 10-day disabled list Friday.

EDGE Analysis

As expected, Vincent will return to the Mariners' bullpen prior to Friday's series opener in Boston. The right-hander has appeared in 25 games for Seattle this season, logging a 4.09 ERA and 1.32 WHIP with a 23:6 K:BB across 22 innings. Look for him to return to a high-leverage role moving forward. In a corresponding move, Ryan Cook was optioned to the minors.
