San Francisco Giants centerfielder Angel Pagan agreed to re-sign with the club on Monday, getting a deal worth $40 million over four years, reports FoxSports.com.

Pagan hit .288 with eight homers and 56 RBI in 154 games during the regular season for the World Champion Giants. Pagan also had 29 stolen bases and a .778 OPS.

Pagan also drew interest from the Phillies and Mets this offseason. Last year, the New York Mets traded Pagan to San Francisco for Andres Torres and Ramon Ramirez.

    The San Francisco Giants won a World Series with Angel Pagan in center field. But CBS Sports’ Jon Heyman reported that the Giants are interested in adding two premier free agents to fill the position.

    Heyman reported that the Giants are talking to both Michael Bourn and Shane Victorino about their open center-field slot. On Sunday, Giants general manager Brian Sabean told The San Jose Mercury News that the team’s first order of business at the upcoming meetings was trying to get deals done with Pagan and infielder Marco Scutaro. But he said the team would also look at “fallback options” if deals don’t come together quickly.

    “We have fallback positions and have created options if one or both decides not to sign with us,” Sabean said. “We’ll react to what we’re up against. You have to play the game.”

    Batting mostly out of the leadoff slot last season with the Giants, Pagan hit .288 with a .338 on-base percentage and 29 stolen bases. Of the three, Bourn is coming off the best offensive season. He hit .274 with a .348 OBP and had 42 stolen bases with the Atlanta Braves, who signed B.J. Upton to a five-year deal on Thursday to replace Bourn. Bourn is also the youngest of the three at 29.

    The San Francisco Giants and New York Mets have agreed to a deal that will send Andres Torres and Ramon Ramirez to New York for outfielder Angel Pagan, according to the New York Post. The deal is contingent on all players passing physicals.

    Pagan will likely be a fourth outfielder option for the Giants, seeing as he can play all three positions. San Francisco will use Aubrey Huff, Nate Schierholtz, and Melky Cabrera around the outfield, but adding Pagan to the mix adds security and a solid glove to the roster.

    The Mets have been busy Tuesday, as it was announced that they had agreed to a deal with relief pitcher Jon Rauch.
