I figured there's someone on here with scouting report access or just knowledge that can tell me why Michael Mergenthaler, the Giants 32nd round pick, was sent to Triple-A Fresno?

I understand Ford and Ishikawa were both just recently sent to the DL, so is this simply a move needed to fill a spot by a player with college experience, being that from what I read, he was pretty durable in his time with Richmond...
