The reason why the Giants had to DFA Blackley was because he was out of options. They were used in 2004 and 2006 with Seattle (he missed 2005 with a shoulder injury) and 2007 with the Giants (he was traded from Seattle to SF in spring training for OF Jason Ellison).
This is the second time Blackley has been DFA'd by the Giants (the first time happened in October 2007 after the close of the season).
Because this is Blackley's second DFA, he does have the choice to become a free agent.
