Gerardo Parra Cut, Mike Gerber Recalled
6 years agoThe San Francisco Giants designated outfielder Gerardo Parra for assignment on Friday and called up outfielder Mike Gerber from the minors in a corresponding move. Parra, 31, hit just .198 with a homer and six RBI in 30 games with the Giants this season. Gerber, 26, was claimed off waivers from the Tigers last December and was hitting an impressive .357 with six long balls and 15 RBI for Triple-A Sacramento. Catcher Erik Kratz was also placed on the 10-day injured list with a strained left hamstring. Gerber could see occasional starts in left field for the struggling Giants and might be worth a flier in NL-only leagues.
