The Giants have designated Andrew Knizner for assignment.
Fantasy Impact
Knizner was set to see a raise in arbitration and will now have the opportunity to test out the free agent market. The 31-year-old should draw interest from teams in need of catcher depth in their organization.
Andrew Knizner went 1-for-4 in the win against the Dodgers, delivering an RBI through a home run while also scoring a run.
Fantasy Impact
After today’s performance, Knizner’s season statistics stand at a .067 batting average with one home run and two runs scored across five games. He will look to get his bat going as he gets more games under his belt.
