NL West Notes: Tejada, Rowand, Harang

The Giants designated Aaron Rowand and Miguel Tejada for assignment today before shutting out the Cubs 4-0. Here are some links from the NL West, starting with the latest on the Giants...

• Grant Brisbee of McCovey Chronicles says it’s probably too late for a shakeup to affect the Giants’ season. They trail the D'Backs by 5.5 games, so their postseason chances are slim, but they got better today and for next season by designating Rowand and Tejada for assignment, Brisbee argues.
• There will be no dynasty for the Giants, Jon Paul Morosi writes at FOX Sports.
• ESPN.com's Jim Bowden and Padres GM Jed Hoyer agree that MLB should reduce the number of players MLB teams are allowed to call up in September.
• A trade involving Padres starter Aaron Harang has become more likely, according to Morosi.
• The Padres are still discussing Chad Qualls with multiple teams, according to Morosi (on Twitter).
