What happened: The Giants designated catcher Eric Haase for assignment. San Francisco simultaneously reinstated catcher Daniel Susac from the 10-day injured list after a rehab assignment.
Why it matters: The move opens a 40-man roster spot while restoring Susac to the active catching corps as the Giants sit at 39-49 on a two-game winning streak. Haase now has 10 days to be traded, claimed off waivers, or outrighted before he can be released.
What to watch: Watch the Giants' next lineup card for Susac's return to the active roster and whether Haase clears waivers.
