From Extra Baggs

Manager Bruce Bochy said there will probably be a roster move made after the game. Rich Aurilia is ready to come off the bereavement list and a position player (Fred Lewis? Matt Downs? Maybe even Aurilia?) figures to be the odd-man out. Stay tuned.

I agree, I’m just saying the Giants seem to like him in the pen for now. If you don’t want to send down Sanchez, then your flexibility is limited, as most of our relievers do not have any options left
