The San Francisco Giants made a flurry of moves on Monday, ahead of their series opener against the very good Tampa Bay Rays.
We all expected Mike Yastrzemski to be activated from the Injured List. That did not happen. Instead, the very surprising but exciting move happened: outfielder Wade Meckler, an eighth-round pick in last year’s draft, will make his MLB debut after fewer than 400 career plate appearances in the Minors.
But he’s not the only player who will make his Giants debut. Joining him on the journey from Las Vegas (where AAA Sacramento played last night) to Oracle Park is veteran infielder Johan Camargo.
