SAN FRANCISCO -- The Giants swapped third baseman before the final series of the first half.

Conor Gillaspie was activated from the disabled list, where he has spent most of the past two months dealing with back issues. Rookie Ryder Jones was placed on the disabled list with a right wrist contusion, suffered on the last road trip.

Gillaspie has played just two games since May 10 and has spent time shuttling back and forth between San Jose and Sacramento on rehab assignments. He was in San Jose this week and said his back feels much better after an injection.
