Lollis has a .266 batting average with 10 extra-base hits after appearing in 36 games at Triple-A Sacramento this season.

EDGE Analysis

Lollis had been off to a fantastic start to the season, but recent struggles at the plate have significantly hurt his numbers. In his last eight games, Lollis has gone 2-for-30 at the plate. As a result, his batting average plummetted from .319 to .266. However, after posting a .330/.384/.466 line with Sacramento last season, Lollis has proven he's capable of delivering at the Triple-A level, giving the club reason to believe he will recover from his cold streak.

Lollis was designated for assignment by the Giants on Monday night, Andrew Baggarly of the San Jose Mercury News reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Giants needed to make room for new acquisition Alejandro De Aza, and Lollis is the 40-man-roster casualty, though he was already back down in Triple-A.
