MLB Trading Deadline

The Giants got Keppinger today from Houston. Not the big bat I hoped for, but with the Giants injury problems and lack of depth up the middle it makes sense. Plus, it didn't cost us much in terms of prospects. Kepp has been swing a good bat since coming off the DL as well. Supposed to start at second tomorrow.

Sounds like a good pic up.

You should be happy with Kepp. He's not a huge difference maker, but he's a great utility player/pinch hitter who's consistent.
