SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - The San Francisco Giants agreed to a $1.05 million, one-year contract with infielder Mike Fontenot, keeping him over second baseman Jeff Keppinger.
Keppinger and backup catcher Eli Whiteside weren't offered contracts by San Francisco on Monday night.
Other arbitration-eligible players who were tendered contracts were two-time NL Cy Young Award winner Tim Lincecum, fellow starting pitcher Ryan Vogelsong, relievers Sergio Romo and Santiago Casilla, infielder Emmanuel Burriss, third baseman Pablo Sandoval and outfielders Melky Cabrera, Angel Pagan and Nate Schierholtz.
Among general manager Brian Sabean's priorities is locking up Lincecum and Matt Cain for the long haul.
