Giants getting some help from Juan Perez while Pagan is hurt

Giants place Angel Pagan on DL
With Angel Pagan’s bum hamstring not improving very much, the Giants have placed the outfielder on the 15-day DL.
Pagan has been out of action for almost two weeks waiting for the hamstring to improve. The trip to the DL is retroactive to May 28, so he’ll first be eligible to return to the lineup on Wednesday, hammy permitting. Pagan last played on May 25, when he nearly gave...
Angel Pagan injury: Giants center fielder goes to DL
The Giants finally sent center fielder and lead-off man Angel Pagan to the disabled list before Friday night’s game. Pagan has been sidelined with a hamstring injury and hasn’t played since his walk-off inside-the-park home run on May 25. The Giants expect to rest Pagan for at least five more days, according to Andrew Baggarly, so a trip to the DL makes sense at this point.
