The Slugs enjoyed a 9-2 win over the Lollygaggers, as Freeman, Kipnis and Beltre helped take five offensive categories. DeSclafani had 12 strikeouts while Guerra, Odorizzi, deGrom, Bumgarner and Lackey helped take ERA and WHIP. For Becknam, new Giant Nunez stole four bases while Cingrani and K-Rod had two saves each.

Trade deadline fallout

Teams will have to see how the trade deadline has impacted their roster. Are their closers now set-up men on contenders? Has a pitcher moved to a better ballpark to pitch in? Have any players lost at-bats due to other acquisitions? The league trading deadline is August 14 in case you want to make any moves.
