Oswalt (knee) is scheduled to pitch a simulated game at the Giants' minor-league camp Tuesday, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Signed to a minor-league deal by San Francisco earlier in the winter, Oswalt looks to be ready to go for the start of the 2022 campaign after he concluded the 2021 season on a rehab assignment in the minors following a prolonged shutdown due to a right knee injury. The 29-year-old right-hander had served as organizational pitching depth for the Mets over the last four seasons, making 26 appearances (14 starts) in total for the big club. Though the Giants let Kevin Gausman walk in free agency earlier in the offseason and didn't add any new starters to the 40-man roster, Oswalt probably isn't a serious candidate to open the season with the major-league squad. Instead, he'll likely slot into the rotation at Triple-A Sacramento.
