Brandon Belt knocked in three of the Giants' eight runs Friday in a victory over the A's.
Belt plated his runs with a single, a bases-loaded walk and a sac fly, giving him 11 RBI in 74 at-bats for the season. He's 3-for-5 with two doubles, four RBI and two walks the last two games. It'd seem to bode well for his chances of making a third straight start on Saturday.
May 19 - 3:16 AM
Brandon Belt doubled twice and walked Thursday in the Giants' 7-5 win over the Cardinals.
Belt had been in a 1-for-16 slump that dropped his OPS from .771 to .693 over the last 13 days. He's going to have to get hot in order to force the Giants to play him. Today was nice, but it hardly guarantees he'll be penciled in again tomorrow against Jarrod Parker and the A's.
May 17 - 6:57 PM
Brandon Belt is back in the Giants' lineup, hitting second, Saturday against the Diamondbacks.
The Giants have struggled offensively this season and need to give the 24-year-old Belt every opportunity to get going. Moving him up to the two-hole should help.
May 12 - 5:18 PM

Henry Schulman on Twitter
Giants manager Bruce Bochy said Saturday that Brandon Belt and Brett Pill will be used in a platoon situation to cover first base in the absence of Aubrey Huff.
Bochy explained to reporters that Belt will get the majority of the starts against right-handed pitching, while Pill will play against lefties. This would appear to be a golden opportunity for Belt to show what he can do, but with Bochy's aversion to playing him in the past there's no telling how much time he'll actually wind up receiving.

Freddy Sanchez
D.L.
Freddy Sanchez has reported improvement since receiving an epidural injection in his lower back, but he's yet to be cleared to resume baseball-related activities.
It's pointless to attach a timetable to Sanchez at this point. He's still not able to make pain-free throws from second base due to his surgically-repaired shoulder, and his back might be an even bigger issue at this point. The Giants are seeking middle infield help from outside the organization.

D.L.
Pablo Sandoval (hand) wrote on his Twitter account that he took 25 swings off a tee Wednesday with no pain.
It was his first time swinging off a tee since undergoing surgery earlier this month to repair a fractured left hamate bone. He still has some work to do before going out on a minor league rehab assignment, but it's possible he'll be ready to rejoin the Giants in the next two to three weeks.

D.L.
Eric Surkamp has experienced a setback in his recovery from a strained left elbow tendon.
When asked Thursday whether Surkamp might need surgery Giants manager Bruce Bochy replied simply: "Obviously there's concern." The 24-year-old left-hander has been out of commission since the end of spring training and might not return this season.

Guillermo Mota
Suspended
Guillermo Mota will appeal his suspension for a second positive test for a performance-enhancing drug.
However, as second-time offender, he must begin serving the suspension immediately. Mota tested positive for Clenbuterol, which is used mostly as a weight-loss supplement. The veteran righty has a 5.06 ERA and 9/4 K/BB ratio in 10 2/3 innings this season.

Dan Runzler
D.L.
Giants placed LHP Dan Runzler on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to March 26, with a strained lat muscle.
Runzler aggravated an injury from last year earlier this month and was given a 4-6 week timetable to recover. It appears he might be a little ahead of that projection, but he might be optioned to Triple-A once he's healthy.

Brian Wilson
D.L.
Brian Wilson (elbow) considers himself ahead of schedule in his recovery from Tommy John surgery.
Wilson, who underwent the procedure in late April, fully expects to be ready for the start of next season. "I’ll be closing unless someone throws a complete game," Wilson said. "Which would be sweet." It's good that Wilson is so upbeat, but he's obviously got a long way to go before we can identify a firm timetable on him.
