SAN FRANCISCO -- A person with knowledge of the negotiations tells The Associated Press that the San Francisco Giants have reached a preliminary agreement with veteran infielder Mark DeRosa on a two-year contract.
The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the agreement has not been finalized.
The addition of DeRosa would be a significant upgrade for the Giants' lineup. He was scheduled for a physical Monday and a formal announcement could come as soon as Tuesday.
San Francisco also is working to finalize a contract to bring back infielder Juan Uribe.
