West Notes: Giants, Diamondbacks, A’s

By TC Zencka | August 26, 2021 at 8:22pm CDT

The Giants made a number of roster moves tonight, including placing Brandon Belt on the bereavement list following the passing of his grandmother, per The Athletic’s Andrew Baggarly (via Twitter). Donovan Solano also went on the injured list today, with no reason specified. He has tested positive for COVID-19 and is likely to miss 7-10 days, tweets the San Francisco Chronicle’s John Shea.

To replace them on the roster, the Giants added Chadwick Tromp and Thairo Estrada, per MLB.com’s Maria I. Guardado (via Twitter). Tromp will provide some coverage for the banged-up Buster Posey, though it doesn’t look like Posey will spent any time on the injured list. Elsewhere out west…

  • Jordan Lawlar, the Diamondbacks’ top pick in the 2021 amateur draft, will undergo season-ending shoulder surgery, per Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic. The sixth overall pick suffered a posterior labrum tear in his left shoulder that will likely take around seven months of recovery time. Arizona hopes to have him ready by the beginning of next season.
  • Stephen Piscotty will undergo surgery on his wrist tomorrow, per Martin Gallegos of MLB.com (via Twitter). Piscotty had been bothered by his wrist for much of the year, attempting to play through the injury. The Athletics outfielder struggled to a 79 OPS+ through 188 plate appearances.

    Hey just a heads up there’s a grammatical error. “though it doesn’t look like Posey will *spent* any time on the injured list.”

      That was a nice way of saying that! Funny, I thought the comments section was just to tell people rudely they were wrong or to state political views!

      Well done @jdmart!

      Except it isn’t a grammatical error, it’s actually just a typo. There’s a difference.
      Oh, the irony. 🙂

        Looks like both to me. The grammatical error, ‘will spent’, could be corrected with either: ‘has spent’ or ‘will spend’, right?

        :shrugs: It has been at least 20 years since I was in an English class of any kind.

        I must admit I was wrong. I was very adamant I’d never use this stuff in real life after I graduated. I did not forsee internet comment boards as being part of my daily life. Now I wish I paid more attention in English class.

    I’m hoping Tromp doesn’t cause a stir. You know , by being called up , and all.

      He was probably banned from Twitter, too. Just to be safe.

    That’s unfortunate about Lawlar, I hope he has a speedy recovery.

    Grammatical error, shouldn’t we be talking about how the Giants are going to collapse in the second half, playing better teams and all?

      And how the Padres will end up being the Dodgers’ only competition in the NL West.

        Padres got swept by the Dodgers and are in a free fall.

          That was obvious sarcasm.

      I love how that was the argument from the first half when as of jun 24 it was
      against teams over .500 –
      Giants: 18-12 (.600)
      Padres: 26-23 (.530)
      Dodgers: 15-21 (.416)
      no one just wants to admit that the giants are just playing well,

          I would go as far to say that the Giants are playing more gooder than anyone would have expected ( figured I would throw some bad grammar in there so those that like to point these things out have something to do)
