The 31-year-old is batting .308 with a .735 OPS in 83 plate appearances for the San Francisco Giants this season. He has also been competent with the glove at both shortstop and second base.
Since the start of 2015, the Giants have used Brandon Crawford and Joe Panik as their primary shortstop and second baseman, respectively.
Both Crawford and Panik are left-handed batters, and ideally, any depth option would bat from the right side to create a more balanced roster.
Some of the middle infield depth options in recent seasons include Kelby Tomlinson, Chase d’Arnaud, Eduardo Nunez, and Alen Hanson.
