Camilo Doval Returns to the Giants, Marcelo Mayer & Bo Davidson Debut Amid Blade Tidwell's Tommy John News | Thompson 2 Clark

In this episode of Thompson 2 Clark, Brad Evans and Garrett Gonzales start with a surprise reunion — the Giants claimed closer Camilo Doval off waivers from the Pirates, two days after Pittsburgh designated him for assignment, with Blade Tidwell moving to the 60-day IL in the corresponding move. They also welcome some fresh faces to the big leagues — Marcelo Mayer made his organizational debut as the DH and Bo Davidson got his first big-league callup in right field, both activated Monday as Bryce Eldridge and Jung Hoo Lee's seasons appear to be over. They dig into the Giants' brutal run of arm injuries, with Tidwell diagnosed with a high-grade UCL sprain and recommended for Tommy John surgery — the fourth Giants starter lost to elbow reconstruction this year, more than any other team in baseball. They close with their thoughts on the MLB playoff races as the regular season winds down, from the Rays and Brewers already clinched to the scramble for the final NL wild card spots.
