Journeyman outfielder Drew Stubbs could be back in the major leagues with his seventh different team if Denard Span lands on the disabled list.
San Francisco Giants manager Bruce Bochy said the club is considering a DL stint for Span after the center fielder sprained his right shoulder while making a running catch and slamming into the outfield wall against the Colorado Rockies on Saturday night. The Giants have just one center fielder on their roster in Gorkys Hernandez, so they need to decide quickly.
Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle reports it is “inevitable” that the Giants will call up an outfielder, and the most likely candidate is Stubbs, who signed a minor league contract earlier this month.
