Mark Mathias - Traded to GiantsMathias was traded from the Mariners to the Giants on Monday along with AJ Pollock for an undisclosed return, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

ImpactMathias was claimed off waivers by the Mariners on July 2 and AJ Pollock might be seen as a negative value contract, so there likely won't be a notable prospect headed back from San Francisco. Mathias, who turns 29 on Wednesday, is a career .249/.323/.402 hitter with six home runs and seven steals in 68 big-league games.

AJ Pollock - Dealt to GiantsPollock (hamstring) was traded from the Mariners to the Giants on Monday along with Mark Mathias for an undisclosed return, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

ImpactPresumably the caliber of prospect the Mariners get back will depend on how much of Pollock's remaining money they are willing to cover. The 35-year-old outfielder is due back soon from the 10-day injured list and slashed .173/.225/.323 with five home runs in 138 plate appearances for Seattle. He is owed the remainder of a one-year, $7 million deal.

Wade Meckler - Promoted to Triple-AMeckler was promoted from Double-A Richmond to Triple-A Sacramento on Monday, Danny Emerman of KNBR 680 San Francisco reports.

ImpactMeckler, an eighth-round pick in 2022, has been a revelation this year. He dominated in the lower levels, which didn't mean much given that he was old for those levels and had a .531 BABIP at Single-A in 2022 and a .493 BABIP at High-A this season. However, his .336/.431/.450 slash line with a 14.4 percent walk rate and 16.7 percent strikeout rate in 39 games as a 23-year-old at Double-A suggests he could make it as a regular and perhaps even as a leadoff hitter someday at the highest level. Meckler doesn't have above-average power or speed, so it will have to be his hit tool that drives his fantasy value and real-life value.
