Eddys Leonard - Designated for assignment The Giants designated Leonard for assignment Tuesday, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Impact Leonard will end up as the odd man out of a 40-man roster spot following Victor Bericoto's (oblique) return from the injured list and the signing of Andrew Knizner. Leonard went 2-for-8 with a double and two strikeouts during the first three games of his MLB career.

Victor Bericoto - Activated from IL, batting fifth San Francisco reinstated Bericoto (oblique) from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday.

Impact After spending just over a month on the shelf with a left oblique strain, Bericoto completed a rehab assignment and was cleared to return to the big-league squad on Tuesday. In just 59 plate appearances this season, the 24-year-old has slashed .293/.305/.552 with four home runs and nine RBI. The Giants designated Eddys Leonard for assignment to make room for Bericoto on the active roster.

Zach Morgan - Back in minors The Giants optioned Morgan to Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Impact The Giants promoted Morgan from Triple-A on Monday once Daniel Susac (knee) landed on the injured list, but the former's time with the big club will come to an end after just one day to make room for Andrew Knizner. Morgan has slashed .241/.323/.325 across 96 plate appearances since moving to Triple-A in May and is likely to remain there for the remainder of the season.

Andrew Knizner - Signs with Giants Knizner signed a major-league contract with the Giants on Tuesday, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Impact Knizner has yet to play in an MLB game this season, but he's slashed .294/.393/.552 with 12 homers, 38 RBI and 33 runs scored across 234 plate appearances at Triple-A. He'll now reunite with the Giants to provide depth at catcher, replacing Zach Morgan.

Bryce Eldridge - Doubles in defeat Eldridge went 1-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Monday's 6-3 extra-inning loss to the Astros.

Impact Eldridge doubled in the fourth inning before coming around to score San Francisco's first run. The 21-year-old hasn't been very productive in August, during which he's batting .233 with two RBI, two runs scored and a 21.9 percent strikeout rate in 32 plate appearances. Overall, he's slashing .248/.342/.426 with 37 runs scored, 28 RBI, 11 long balls and a stolen base across 310 plate appearances this season.

Matthew Gage - Tosses bullpen session Gage (elbow) threw a bullpen session Monday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact Gage landed on the 15-day injured list with a left elbow strain July 4 and was transferred to the 60-day IL on Aug. 2. The southpaw will continue building up in hopes of rejoining the Giants' bullpen before the end of the season. In 27.1 innings on the campaign, Gage owns a 5.60 ERA, 1.65 WHIP and 22:17 K:BB.

Drew Gilbert - Goes yard in loss Gilbert went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a second RBI in Monday's 6-3 extra-inning loss to the Astros.

Impact Gilbert ended his 24-game power drought with a homer in the seventh inning. The outfielder had added just three RBI and two extra-base hits in that span. Gilbert is hitting .237 with a .683 OPS, five homers, 24 RBI, 31 runs scored, 10 doubles, three triples and one stolen base over 95 contests. While he's competing for the starting job in center field, his lack of both power and speed will restrict his ability to rack up counting stats.

Jung Hoo Lee - Belts homer in loss Lee went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Monday's 6-3 extra-inning loss to the Astros.

Impact Lee started August hot, but he went just 1-for-10 over the weekend's three-game series versus the Tigers. He bounced back in this matchup with a fifth-inning homer, his third of the month and ninth of the year. The outfielder is hitting .300 with a .782 OPS, 46 RBI, 57 runs scored, 26 doubles, four triples and eight stolen bases across 109 contests. Lee's playing style is more about consistent contact rather than power or speed, though he could score more often if his turn atop the lineup Monday turns into an extended stretch in that slot.

Dylan Smith - Takes blown save Smith allowed a run on one hit and one walk over one inning to take a blown save in Monday's 6-3 extra-inning loss to the Astros.

Impact Smith was tasked with protecting a one-run lead in the ninth inning and couldn't get the job done. The right-hander has received first dibs on closing duties after the Giants' trade-deadline sell-off, but he's converted just one of two chances, and he's allowed three runs over 5.1 innings in August. Overall, he has a 3.09 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 27:12 K:BB through 23.1 innings while adding two saves, six holds and two blown saves.

Blade Tidwell - Fares well in no-decision Tidwell allowed one run on four hits and a walk while striking out six over 5.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Astros on Monday.

Impact Tidwell performed well, throwing 62 of 96 pitches for strikes, but he came up an out shy of his first career quality start. He's done well with three runs allowed over 10.2 innings over his first two starts this year, and he'll likely get the chance to end the campaign in the rotation. Overall, he's at a 2.78 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 19:5 K:BB through 22.2 innings over 10 games (two starts) in the majors. He's projected for a home start versus the Rockies over the weekend.
