Ian Desmond off the DL and hitting .308 for the Rockies (equivalent of .238 for teams that play home games on Earth) while mostly playing LF with some 1B mixed in.

Desi!

Espinosa's K rate is going to be higher than his OPS if they don't DFA his ass soon. :crackup:

Espy: .138 with 43Ks in 109 ABs.

I can't imagine he's going to play much longer.

J Zimm, 5.1 IP and 4 ER last night.  His ERA is approaching 6.  He has fallen off a cliff.

he had a decent month in Oakland's AAA affiliate, but he's nothing more than a LOOGY now.

•The Giants reached a minors deal with righty Collin Balester. The 30-year-old appeared briefly last year in the Korea Baseball Organization’s Samsung Lions. His most recent affiliated action came in 2015, when he posted solid results in the upper minors but struggled to a 7.47 ERA over 15 2/3 MLB innings.

A minor transaction only in the minds of those unimpressed with mustaches.  Good luck Bally!

They figure it might improve Danny's confidence at the plate to have a pitcher in the stadium he can get a hit off.
