Brower released, Foppert up
Move made after Sunday's game, according to the AP story. Quite an overdue move performance wise, though with Brower's past versatility and usefulness, it's understandable why the move took so long. Real curious to see how Foppert does and in what role.

how sad
More importantly, while I know the Giants probably aren't done making changes, they now have four lefties in the bullpen (Taschner, Fassero, Christiansen, Eyre) and only three righties by my count (Hawkins, Munter, Walker). What kind of bullpen is that?
Amen
but why not release Christiansen instead?
I'm not real high on R/L matchups, either -- Felipe 's use of the relief corps exhausts me -- but a 4-lefty bullpen seemed particularly/conspicuously, excessive. Contract status have something to do with it?

Contracts
The contracts are similar enough that I don't think the deciscion was based on that. It's probably just that Brower is struggling this year.
I believe this makes Torrealba our only arbitration eligible player.
