Neal, 23, has spent the 2011 season at Triple-A Fresno, where he has a .295/.351/.409 line. Baseball America ranked him 96th among all MLB prospects before the 2010 season and seventh among Giants prospects before the 2011 season. Neal, who played on a youth travel team with Mike Leake, Stephen Strasburg and the son of Giants manager Bruce Bochy, has an enviable combination of power and arm strength, according to Baseball America, which suggested he could become an everyday player. However, Neal has seen his power numbers decline this year (13 doubles, two homers, .409 slugging percentage).

Freddy Sanchez will undergo season-ending surgery Tuesday to repair the labrum in his right shoulder.
As expected. Sanchez has spent the better part of the past two months attempting to rehab the injury, but he can now be ruled out until 2012. Jeff Keppinger, who was acquired from the Astros last month, will continue to see the majority of the playing time at second base.
