Derek Law’s appearance last night could’ve gone better. Three earned runs in 1.1 innings with a home run, walk, and strikeout makes it 10 of his last 20 appearances (going back to last season) where he’s allowed runs, which is a Melanconian rate the Giants cannot afford.
As such, Johnny Cueto was moved to the 60-day DL to clear a spot on the 40-man roster and RHP Casey Kelly was called up from Triple-A Sacramento to take Law’s spot. You might vaguely remember Casey Kelly in a random start back in 2012 when he was a Padre, but otherwise, he’s had an unremarkable career since being drafted in 2008 by the Red Sox.
