Nori Aoki heads to disabled list

Last night Aoki fractured his leg after being hit by a pitch yesterday and was estimated to be out at least two weeks, so the move is unsurprising. Travis Ishikawa gets the call from AAA. (NBC Sports)
Fantasy Impact:
This is a big blow for the Giants and obviously a blow for Aoki owners. Aoki has been one of the hardest people to strikeout in the majors this season, and has swiped a surprising number of bags. Gregor Blanco, Travis Ishikawa and Brandon Belt look to get outfield reps in turn. Belt will likely get OF eligibility with Aoki and Brandon Belt on the DL, which will help with his flexibility.
