The San Francisco Giants place Keiichi Yabu on the D.L.

The Giants have placed righty reliever Keiichi Yabu on the 15-day disabled list with a strained right middle finger. This is a shame for the Giants as Yabu was starting to build up some trade value due to his solid season so far. Yabu has pitched in 40 games (0 starts) for the Giants this season and he is 3-4 with a 3.64 ERA and a 1.38 WHIP. The Giants have recalled 25-year old lefty reliever Geno Espineli from the minors to replace Yabu on the roster and in the bullpen. Espineli has pitched in 34 games (0 starts) in AAA-ball this season and he is 1-1 with 1 save, a 2.06 ERA and a 0.99 WHIP.
