Current Roster

[calsnowskier]

The Giants currently have 12 players on either the 10 or 60 day ILs. Apparently, that is reflective across the league as there is talk as to why IL placements are up 15 percent from 2019.

MLB’s Mounting Injury Problem

Injuries are up throughout MLB in 2021. MLBTR look at the latest report on injury data and a number of high-profile cases around the game.

My guess is the fact that they are coming off a very short season / a year off so their bodies had deteriorated in that time. relatedly, the lockdowns have likely reduced their concentration on professional-level workout routines. Doing a workout alone in your home just doesn’t have the same enthusiasm as a workout in a public gym or at a team facility.

Before today’s game...

Yaz activated from the 10-day IL
Garcia activated from the 10-day IL
Dick placed on the 10-day IL

It was interesting that they carried three catchers but when Posey got hurt, it suddenly made sense.

Can we trade Bart for some bonafide BP help yet?

Sell low much?

BP and a money?

 

[pachyderm]

Like 2 or 3 moneys?

 

[calsnowskier]

BP and a money?

I mean...

This is not the time to trade Bart. His stock is pretty low right now. Lower than his actual value.

Aaahh...

Can we agree we need BP help?

Just to help defray the cost of adult diapers at @tzill 's house...?

 

[pachyderm]

And damn @calsnowskier you're either up early or very, very late

I think they just wanted to get JB up there to soak up some Buster/Casali knowledge before the minor league season started.

I should start a GoFundMe and divert pampers funds to it.

Aaron Sanchez will go on the IL. He has right biceps tightness. That means Logan Webb stays in the rotation.

He better start pitching like he did in spring training or I want to see Conner Menez start a game or two.

 

[tzill]

Vosler optioned. I'm guessing to activate JC.

 

[LHG]

Jose Alvarez placed on the 10 day IL, Lamonte Wade, Jr activated.

 

[LHG]

Dickerson activated, Wade optioned.

The Giants claimed Braden Bishop (Hunter’s older brother) off waivers. Reyes Moronta to the 60-day IL.

Of course they did. He fits the recent profile of underwhelming former outfield prospects that they seem to grab.

I suspect he will be DFA’d by us within 2 weeks. They just want him in the system to help w Hunter or make him happy.

I am sure they would be thrilled if he actually does something himself (that is possible), but that likely wasnt the deciding factor in the claim.
