Giants’ Panik candidate for concussion DL A day after he got hit hard at the plate, he took more vision and balance tests and passed them all. The Giants might make that choice easy for him. Panik was knocked down in the doubleheader nightcap in Washington as he tried to score. The ball thrown from the outfield plunked him on his head right as Nationals catcher Matt Wieters applied the tag to the head. Panik, who seemed dazed after the play but stayed in the game, had a scheduled day off Monday anyway, manager Bruce Bochy said. Considering Panik’s concussion issues in 2016, the Giants need to be especially careful and cautious. The likely roster replacement would be Orlando Calixte, who was the Giants’ 26th man for Sunday’s doubleheader. Pablo Sandoval’s right-handed hitting (3-for-25 on the season, 0-for-5 as a Giant) wasn’t spectacular, but Bochy put the third baseman in the lineup with the Marlins starting a lefty, Adam Conley. If Sandoval truly is part of the Giants’ future, they need to see if he can produce from the right side. With the doubleheader, the Giants needed someone to make a spot start, and the choice was Cain over Albert Suarez, who threw 27 pitches Sunday.

    Denver Post sports writer Patrick Saunders with the latest installment of his Rockies Mailbag. Pose a Rockies- or MLB-related question for the Rockies Mailbag. At what point does Bud Black’s job security come into question? I know he doesn’t have the most talented roster to work with. Still, it seems like they also keep shooting themselves in the foot with coaching mistakes like baserunning errors and mismanaged lineups (Kris Bryant is batting third or fourth, and Ezequiel Tovar is starting the year batting seventh).

    The extra season of eligibility granted by the NCAA for the 2020-21 COVID season has unleashed a number of previously unforeseen opportunities upon the game of college basketball. Trevor Baskin’s story certainly is one of them. A gangly and overlooked recruit out of Pomona High School in Arvada four years ago, Baskin gradually played his way into one of the top players in the Division II Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference through his first three seasons at Colorado Mesa. Going into his senior season last fall, Baskin outlined a plan.
