San Francisco Giants shortstop/outfielder Orlando Calixte has been demoted to Triple-A. Calixte has bounced between the minors and big leagues this season where he hit .176 in 34 at-bats. There has been no corresponding move as to who will replace him on the big league roster but it could be Joe Panik (concussion) who has been playing in rehab games this week. Calixte will likely get called up again when rosters expand but doesn't offer any fantasy value.
The San Francisco Giants recalled infielder/outfielder Orlando Calixte to be the teams 26th man today. Calixte struggled earlier in the year when he was on the major league roster and carries no value in fantasy leagues. He will likely be sent down after today.
The San Francisco Giants have sent infielder/outfielder Orlando Calixte to Triple-A Sacramento. The utilityman has struggled his year hitting just .172 in 33 at-bats.

San Francisco Giants left fielder Orlando Calixte lead off for the Giants on Tuesday, going 2-for-5 with two RBI. Calixte won't be an everyday regular for the Giants, so even after leading off, he's not worth a pickup in mixed leagues. Calixte was batting .287 in Triple-A with eight homers and 11 steals, but the 25-year-old has yet to show that he can produce at the major league level.
The San Francisco Giants called up infielder/outfielder Orlando Calixte Tuesday and sent down outfielder Mac Williamson in a related move. The Giants are putting Calixte straight to work, as he will lead off and start in left field tonight. Calixte was having a strong season at Triple-A, hitting .287 with eight home runs and 11 stolen bases. He has a rare speed-power potential, which makes him worth keeping an eye on in all fantasy leagues should he continue to see everyday at-bats.
