Giants' George Kontos: Consistent in recent relief appearances
Kontos has given up just three earned runs and two walks over his last 11 relief appearances.
Analysis:
The five-year vet now boasts a 2.86 ERA along with 20 strikeouts over 28.1 innings pitched this season. However, the return of Sergio Romo (forearm) has booted Kontos from his setup role and Kontos is unlikely to see any spontaneous save opportunities in the near future.
