Giants Make Intriguing Roster Move<\/p>\n

Before Friday\u2019s game against the Mariners, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reported that the Giants made a roster move within their minor league organization.<\/p>\n

Pavlovic wrote via X:<\/a> \u201cParks Harber will join Bo Davidson in Triple-A \u2026 he was in big league camp and has played quite a bit of outfield recently. They\u2019re moving up as Dakota Jordan, Gavin Kilen and Trevor Cohen move up from High-A to Double-A.\u201d<\/p>\n

Parks Harber will join Bo Davidson in Triple-A \u2026 he was in big league camp and has played quite a bit of outfield recently. They\u2019re moving up as Dakota Jordan, Gavin Kilen and Trevor Cohen move up from High-A to Double-A.<\/p>\n

The Giants acquired Harber when they traded Camilo Doval to the New York Yankees<\/a>. The 24-year-old was batting .284 with an .879 OPS in Double-A Richmond before his promotion. He also tallied 12 home runs and 47 RBIs in 66 games for the Flying Squirrels.<\/p>\n

An interesting note from Pavlovic is that Harber, a primary third baseman, has played \u201cquite a bit of outfield recently.\u201d<\/p>\n

San Francisco have transferred OF Bo Davidson and INF Parks Harber to Triple-A Sacramento from Double-A Richmond. <\/p>\n

The 24-year-old is the Giants\u2019 No. 13 overall prospect, according to MiLB<\/a>. He is set to join San Francisco\u2019s No. 6 prospect Bo Davidson in Triple-A Sacramento.<\/p>\n

In addition, infielder Gavin Kilen (No. 4 ranked prospect), outfielder Dakota Jordan (No. 5) and outfielder Trevor Cohen (No. 8) were all promoted from High-A to Double-A.<\/p>\n
