CBSSports.com Fantasy Giants infielder Joaquin Arias is adjusting well to playing every day in the absence of third baseman Pablo Sandoval, who is on the disabled list with a foot injury. Arias extended his hitting streak to seven games Sunday against the Braves. Arias is batting .387 (12 for 31) with one double, two runs and four RBI in his last seven games -- all starts at third base.
June 12, 2013San Francisco Chronicle Nick Noonan’s stay in Fresno was brief. He was there long enough to go 3-for-5 in a 10-1 win over Tucson. This morning, he is on his way to Pittsburgh to rejoin the Giants, who are likely to place Pablo Sandoval on the disabled list with that lingering foot sprain. If so, I imagine Noonan and Joaquin Arias will share third base. Manager Bruce Bochy will provide all the details, but I think Arias will be first among equals because he has more experience. In other words, I’m no sure it’ll be a left-right platoon. But we’ll see. Noonan’s big-league career got off to a nice start, but his average ...

Lilly is coming off shoulder surgery, but he's talking a...
March 8, 2013San Francisco Chronicle A few jobs at stake in spring games Blanco came to spring training on a minor-league contract last year, hit .333 with 13 steals, and displayed a fancy glove in the exhibitions to bull his way onto the 25-man roster. [...] Joaquin Arias showed a lot of infield versatility last spring and hit .298 with two home runs and only three strikeouts in 47 at-bats. Arias did not make the team out of camp but arrived April 25 when Aubrey Huff went on the disabled list with an anxiety disorder. All the starting jobs are set, but the Giants need to fill one bullpen opening while finding a backup middl...
