Yes! Put him at third for the rest of the season. DFA Marrero, Hernandez and Hill.
sunshipballoons
Hill is on the DL. But I don’t know why Hill isn’t a good choice as a reserve. He’s been a pretty average player over the past few years.

I get what you’re saying soth hernandez, but span is a ball of glass
a1544
Bench player?
a1544
Or move nuñez to left?
sunshipballoons
Yup, at least for today.
SFgiantsUK
He is hitting .446 in AAA; this move is #Awesome. Yes Yes Yes he is not going to hit .446 at AT
lonestardodger
Pretty sure he’s never played at “the game’s highest level.”
lesterdnightfly
That sounded weird to me, too. AAA is the highest level? Maybe for the Padres this year (haha), but still……
TheMichigan
No! Not Be there or be Square guy!
ReverieDays
Chris Marrero probably should have never been on the team, anyway. The guy has never been good.
sunshipballoons
He’s barely played in the majors. He’s been a pretty good minor league player and he had a big spring. It was worth seeing what he could do.
ReverieDays
And no surprise to anyone that he floundered once the games matter, like so many AAAA guys of his makeup.

Anyone else having a Gary Brown flashback?
sacball
hell no
billymayshere
Nope
digimike
The situation not the result.
sacball
by the time Gary Brown was called up, his shiny prospect status had dwindled, especially since he had to repeat AAA

Christian Arroyo is 21 years old… Even if he goes back down to AAA this year it won’t change much for him. I see him making the major league roster next year and will get good experience now and in September this year.
The Oregonian
Kind of wish they wouldn’t waste service time on him this eary in the year, he’s only 21. The Giants weren’t built to compete before Opening Day and they clearly won’t now. They should have kept him down, tanked, and tried to rebuild responsibly.

Hill has been a solid player. I like stubbs in the outfield good defense. Arroyo is our best prospect on the team.
Daveredd
Yes. DFA Marrero and Hernandez also – it’s time to kick start the offense.

Red Sox. bring back Chris Marrero–release Brentz, Craig and Castillo —
Marrero may be a AAAA but he can play multiple positions and a RH bat.
My preference would be to see them bring up Devers from AA if Sandoval goes on the DL.
The kid has a solid bat and Butter can do wonders improving kids defensively.
That would be 7 kids home grown: Bene, JBJ and Mookie in the OF.
Devers,Bogaerts, Pedroia in the IF–with Vazquez behind the plate.

SF is a cold and wet place especially in spring. Marrero hasn’t learned to adjust his game much since coming out of the dry and hot Arizona spring. A lot of unimpressive deep fly-balls.
