Giants Activate Wenceel Perez From IL

Wenceel Perez (oblique) activated from IL

Perez returns to Giants after missing 10 games

The Giants activated infielder Wenceel Perez from the injured list on Sunday. Perez had been out since Aug. 13 with a left oblique strain.

To make room for Perez on the roster, the Giants optioned infielder Jason Vosler to Triple-A Sacramento.

Perez is batting .265/.313/.440 with four home runs and 15 RBIs in 73 games this season.

The Giants are hoping that Perez can provide a boost to their offense down the stretch. The team is currently 6.5 games behind the Dodgers in the NL West and needs to make up ground in the wild-card race.

Perez is expected to start at third base on Sunday against the Diamondbacks.

Perez's return is a boost for the Giants

Perez is a versatile infielder who can play all four positions. He is also a good hitter with a solid on-base percentage. His return gives the Giants some much-needed depth and flexibility.

The Giants have been struggling offensively lately, so Perez's return could be a big boost. He is a good contact hitter who can get on base and put the ball in play.

The Giants are hoping that Perez can help them turn things around and make a push for the playoffs.
