Now that the San Francisco Giants will be without Pablo Sandoval for a while with his broken hamate bone (again) they'll have to rely even more on the farm then they already do, as triple-A call up Conor Gillaspie will get the start in Pablo's absence this afternoon. Pablo had started every game for the Black and Orange thus far, now they'll have to play stop-gap until his return.
Gregor Blanco and Brandon Belt both get another start, while Buster Posey will be back behind the dish to catch Vogelsong. Brandon Crawford and Joaquin Arais make up the middle infield, batting seventh and eighth once more.
