SF Giants DFA LaMonte Wade Jr., ROLL THE DICE on Dominic ...

  • The San Francisco Giants designated LaMonte Wade Jr. for assignment on Wednesday at Oracle Park amid several roster changes.
  • The move followed Wade’s severe offensive slump this season, with a.167 batting average and just one home run, prompting the Giants to seek improvements.
  • To strengthen their lineup, the Giants brought in experienced first baseman Dominic Smith and added outfielder Daniel Johnson along with catcher Andrew Knizner from their Triple-A Sacramento affiliate.
  • Smith, a 29-year-old with eight years of MLB experience and a.246/.313/.403 career slash line, opted out of a Yankees minor-league deal and may replace Wade at first base.
  • These roster adjustments reflect the Giants' urgent effort to address their anemic offense during an extended scoring drought while remaining competitive in the playoff race.
