Giants expect Pagan to return Tuesday

SAN FRANCISCO -- Giants center fielder Angel Pagan is scheduled to be activated Tuesday when rosters expand to 40 players, general manager Bobby Evans said Friday.

In the meantime, San Francisco transferred Pagan's rehab assignment to Class A Advanced San Jose, where he will continue to work back from tendinitis in his right patella.

Evans said Pagan will play Saturday and Sunday and get a day off Monday before rejoining the team Tuesday.

Keeping Pagan on the disabled list allows the Giants to keep Juan Perez, the team's only healthy backup infielder, on the roster.
