The San Francisco Giants lose Emmanuel Burriss for a while
25-year old switch hitting 2B Emmanuel Burriss will be in a walking boot for the next four weeks due to having a fractured toe. That pretty much means that Burriss will start the year in AAA. He played in 61 games for the Giants last season and he was 48 of 202 (.238 avg, .560 OPS) with 18 runs scored, 13 RBIs and 11 stolen bases. Burriss was likely going to have a hard time making the Giants’ opening day roster anyway.
