Seems like there's more here than meets the eye. Earlier this week, Giambi said he was healthy, while manager Bob Geren cryptically refused to say why Giambi hadn't been activated. Seems like some contender will likely take a flier on him as a pinch-hitter, though he's hitting just .193 this year.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Sign Giambi as the LH bat off the bench and send Hoffpauir to AAA?

I don't see how it would help us. He's a poor fielder and has been even worse than Hoffpauir this year. But I really wouldn't care on way or the other.

I'm sure they could make room for his shit in the clubhouse medicine cabinet. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif[/img]
