Former D'Back Shea Hillenbrand designated for assignment

[Lefty]

Is Shea a cancer? Some team is going to get a good third baseman very cheap.

Out-right cutting guys seems to be the new style. I like it. Not sitting with your teammates sounds over the line to me, no matter how many games you don't start.

Wow, sounds like he has some problems with management. I recall when he left Boston he was reported to have said some things that didn't really match up with the actual audio of interviews, so I dismissed it. But here there were some occasional odd hints about his attitude, I know, and we just figured they were pulling a Durazo and preparing the fans for his disappearance.

Giants picked him up.

Giants get a big upgrade at 1B and it could be trouble for the D-Backs. The Giants are right there near the top of the division so with this signing they could take it, but you never know with how hot the D-Backs have been. If we get 3 pitchers on our rotation to pitch good games consistently then we should win but everyone except Webb is just unpredictable.
