The Giants are “very close” to striking a deal to acquire infielder Gordon Beckham from the Braves, Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle reports on Twitter. Presumably, the move would be made to help cover for Eduardo Nunez, who is dealing with a hamstring issue.

This has to just be for cash.

You're embarrassing me in front of Buster Posey!

Well, there goes our chances at keeping the #2 pick.. come on Coppy.. don't get rid of the scrubs just yet.

for 6 games anything more than a bag of baseballs is an overpay!

Braves get cash for six days of Beckham.. so I would think that is about $2.50

Bout tree fiddy.

Braves got minor league infielder Rich Rodriguez

 

[bravesfanMatt]

Instead of cash. We get Rich Rodriguez. What is up with ex football players/coaches being minor league players.

Fair enough. Dude appears to be organizational filler through and through, but we got him for 7 days of Gordon Beckham.

 

[FreemanFan]

Getting anybody with a pulse for a week of Gordon Beckham is a win.

Dudes got some major power...

Whadda mean? 2.000 OPS at AAA. Only 1 AB, but I see big things!

Imagine the protection that would bring.

Wow, you never see a guy like that traded. He's basically a defensive replacement utility infielder in the minors. He spent his first four pro seasons in rookie ball. Maybe cash would've been better?
