Huff took a short break to decompress after the World Series, then wasted little time accomplishing his offseason plan: re-signing with the Giants. Huff is staying put with San Francisco just as he’d hoped, agreeing to a $22 million, two- year contract with the World Series champions Tuesday. He receives $10 million in each of the next two seasons, and the Giants have a $10 million club option for 2013 with a $2 mil- lion buyout. ‘‘There was a big interest out there. But in the end, it wasn’t going to take much to come back here for me,’’ Huff said at AT&T Park. ‘‘Some other team would have had to blow me away with like a four-year deal or something and a lot, a lot of dough to stay away from here.’’ The Giants matched a simi- larly structured offer from another club — knowing full well Huff wanted to stay. ‘‘We paid the piper, and you can’t look back,’’ general man- ager Brian Sabean said during a conference call. ‘‘He was obvi- ously underpaid for what he did Berrendos having strong season for us last year. ...

Players offered arbitration have until next Tuesday to accept.
