I would have accepted a case of rosin bags and a bag of old BP balls for Gearrin and Jackson. Duggar and Black will be an improvement no matter what they do.
Duggar started in CF today, led off and is 1 for 4 with a double so far, end of 6th. Giants finally gave Bum some run support and he left in the 6th after 101 pitches, leading 6-4. Then they scored 5 more in the bottom of the 6th to break the game open.
Black was rated one of the organization's top pitching prospects a couple of years ago but has been off the radar lately. He has high heat and will undoubtedly be used in the bullpen.
Yesterday they called up SS Chase d'Arnaud from Sacto when they put Panik on the DL. He's 31 and has a career BA of .223, only 457 ABs with 5 different clubs in 7 years. Kind of a puzzling move since they sent Tomlinson down and he's at least that good.
