Sabol spent the entire 2023 season on the Giants' roster as a Rule 5 selection, but he's logged just 38 plate appearances over 11 games with the big club in 2024.

• Giants' Blake Sabol: Sent down to Double-A

  05/21/2024 • By RotoWire

  Sabol was optioned to Double-A Richmond on Tuesday. Sabol's absence from the lineup Tuesday versus the Pirates was initially attributed to southpaw Martin Perez being on the mound for Pittsburgh, but this news sheds further light on the matter. Sabol's demotion coincides with Patrick Bailey's (concussion) reinstatement from the injured list and Ryan McKenna's addition to the 26-man roster. Sabol was seeing steady playing time due to injuries to Bailey and Tom Murphy (knee) and produced a .796 OPS across 38 plate appearances, but he's now heading to the Double-A level for the first time since 2022.
