Third base becomes Giants' revolving door
Third base has been a tough position to fill since Pablo Sandoval was shelved with a hand injury. Conor Gillaspie was called up from Triple-A Fresno, but he was returned to the minors after a not-so-long tryout. Joaquin Arias took over the position, showing a slick glove and decent bat. But Tuesday, he took a 93-mph fastball from Jeremy Guthrie off his left forearm in the fourth...

Dodger Fans: An Example Of What Not To Do
Are Dodger fans really that bad?
Yes, yes they are.
Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle pointed out the subtle idiocy of Dodger fans on Twitter during Monday’s game.
Many fans here booed when Kemp misplayed Melky ball, didn’t reach Arias RBI single.If that’s what they were booing, they’re total idiots.

Postgame Wrap: Sloppy Thirds
The good news, such as it is, is that you can’t get two losses for the same stupid game.
But if you can, man, it would be for this game. Nothing looked good from the seventh inning on, and very little before then. The Giants committed three errors, but deserved at least a couple more. Conor Gillaspie’s defensive flaws finally made their presence felt, and their debut...

Huff put on 15-day disabled list; Belt gets his chance
The Giants have placed Aubrey Huff on the 15-day disabled list due to an anxiety disorder and have recalled utility infielder Joaquin Arias from triple-A Fresno.
While Arias, 27, has played in 18 games so far, he is hitting a nice .400 batting average along with a couple home runs and 17 RBI. Playing primarily shortstop, Arias looks to give Brandon Crawford some support for the Giants...

Giants Place Aubrey Huff on 15-Day DL, Call Up Joaquin Arias
According to Hank Schulman, Aubrey Huff has been placed on the 15-day DL with anxiety disorder, for which he is currently getting treatment. He’s already missed the past few games, and it’s looking like this will open the door for both Nate Schierholtz and Brandon Belt to be in the starting lineup on a regular basis. As for Huff, this kind of problem is no fun, and one...

SF Giants Rumors: Sleepy Giants, Welcome Arias, Hitting Sandoval, Rehab Freddy
The San Francisco Giants arrived in Cincinnati at 3am, so I guess that’s the reason they looked like they were sleeping offensively till the 9th inning in last nights game.
It appears Aubrey Huff will not be joining the team anytime soon. The Giants are purchasing the contract of infielder Joaquin Arias to take Huff’s spot on the roster. It’s likely Huff will be...

Arias, 27, was signed out of the Dominican Republic by the Yankees in the 2001 amateur draft.
He was the “player to be named later” when the Yanks traded him and Alfonso Soriano to Texas for...
