SAN FRANCISCO - Sergio Romo tested free agency, had some offers and ultimately decided he wanted to stay put in San Francisco pitching for the only team he has known.The animated reliever finalized a $15 million, two-year contract with the Giants on Monday, keeping a key member of the bullpen who has been part of three championship runs.When it comes to professional baseball, this has been my home, Romo said. Im very thankful for every opportunity that Ive gotten. This was a place I was able to make a name for myself. This is the only organization I know.Romo gets a $2 million signing bonus payable by Dec. 30 and salaries of $5 million next year and $8 million in 2016. The right-hander could earn an additional $500,000 annually in performance bonuses based on games finished as part of the agreement: $100,000 each for 30 and each additional five through 50.San Francisco also was nearing completion of right-hander Jake Peavys $24 million, two-year deal. A formal announcement was planned for Tuesday.The 31-year-old Romo has spent all seven of his big league seasons with San Francisco, winning titles in 2010, 12 and this year. He went 6-4 with a 3.72 ERA with 23 saves in 64 outings last season as San Francisco earned the wild card and went on to beat Kansas City in a seven-game World Series.All in all, I really wanted to stay home. I wanted to stay here, Romo said. I dont really see myself wearing another uniform.Romo and Santiago Casilla have shared the closer job in recent years, with Casilla again taking over ninth-inning duties in 2014 after Romo blew three saves in June.Hes meant so much to our success, manager Bruce Bochy said. So much is talked about with our bullpen. Whether setting up or closing, I thought it was important for our team, for our bullpen. Sergio knows all of us, we know him, theres a sense of comfort there. We know what were getting, a very good pitcher whos comfortable pitching late in the ballgame. I cant say enough about how he carried himself this year. I know we made a switch there. He was all about winning.Romo and fellow relievers Casilla, Jeremy Affeldt and Javier Lopez have been part of each championship team.Sergios resume speaks for itself, what hes done for us in high-leverage situations has been a key to our bullpen at the end of the game, general manager Brian Sabean said. As we reviewed our needs going into the off-season, we very much wanted to keep our bullpen together. Bringing Sergio back, I think weve accomplished that.

They know how tight it is, Harbaugh said. They know what they have to do.The Texans (7-7) have a slim chance of reaching the playoffs, too, but would need to win both remaining games and for several teams to lose their last two.Theyll proceed with a fourth-string quarterback with Ryan Mallett (chest), Ryan Fitzpatrick (broken leg) and rookie Tom Savage (knee) all out with injuries. Coach Bill OBrien wont say who he plans to start between Thad Lewis and Case Keenum.We dont know who were going to play, Baltimore outside linebacker Elvis Dumervil said. All we can do is just kind of gather up film and try to prepare for everything ... so, its difficult. As difficult as it may seem for them, its difficult for us, too.But regardless of who OBrien picks, the Ravens will face a quarterback who hasnt appeared in a game this season — and who wasnt with the Texans when the season began.Because they dont know wholl start at quarterback, the Ravens are focused on slowing down Arian Foster, who is averaging 102.5 yards rushing a game.Keenum lost all eight games he started for Houston last season before being released in training camp. Lewis went 2-3 in five starts for Buffalo in 2013 before he was released in camp. The Texans plucked Keenum off the St. Louis practice squad this week and signed Lewis on Nov. 26 when Mallett was injured.These guys have stepped right in, and its really the philosophy in this league, that injuries happen and the next man up has to be ready to go, OBrien said.dddddddddddd Both guys are working really hard.Some things to know about the Ravens-Texans game:HOMECOMING: Sunday will be a homecoming for Baltimore offensive co-ordinator Gary Kubiak, who grew up in Houston and coached the Texans from 2006 until he was fired last year. Kubiak led the Texans to the only two playoff appearances in franchise history in 2011 and 2012.Many of the Texans are excited to see their former coach again, but Foster is looking forward to it more than most. Foster, an undrafted free agent, said hell always be thankful to Kubiak for giving him a shot in the NFL.CORNERED: The Ravens have five cornerbacks on injured reserve, which goes a long way toward explaining why they have the NFLs 30th-ranked pass defence. Six players have lined up at cornerback for Baltimore, which last week lost two defensive backs — CB Asa Jackson and safety Terrence Brooks — to knee injuries.WATT A SEASON: Houston defensive end J.J. Watt keeps adding to his impressive numbers. Watt had two sacks last Sunday to give him 16 1/2 this season, third in the NFL. He has 53 career sacks to tie the franchise record and needs 3 1/2 more to become the first player in NFL history with two seasons with 20 or more sacks; he had 20 1/2 in 2012. He has swatted down 10 passes, forced three fumbles and recovered five.Hes also scored on an interception return, a fumble return, and has grabbed three touchdown receptions.HOMECOMING, PART 2: Kubiak isnt the only Raven with ties to Houston. Veteran tight end Owen Daniels returns after spending the previous eight seasons with the Texans.Its going to be weird walking into that stadium, he said. It will be different being in there and coming out a different tunnel and all that stuff. But it will be good to see my old buddies that are still there.Daniels signed as a free agent with Baltimore in April.___AP Sports Writer David Ginsburg contributed to this report.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP_NFL ' ' '
