The Giants will activate Mike Yastrzemski from the injured list and designate him the 27th man for today’s doubleheader against the Nationals, per Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chroncicle (via Twitter).
Yaz has been dealing with a number of different injuries this season, twice landing on the injured list. This latest stint was because of a thumb sprain. When healthy, Yaz has batted .222/.332/.456 in 184 plate appearances. LaMonte Wade Jr. and Mike Tauchman have split time in right field in Yaz’s absence.
Curt Casali could be activated from the injured list for the second game, but the Giants are going to wait to make an official decision on him or their game two pitching plans, per Slusser (Twitter notes). Kevin Gausman will take the bump in game one of the twin bill.
If Yaz and Solano heat up to their 2020 form this team can truly make it past the All-Star Break
I hope they shed their 2016 fall after all-star break.past.
Most of the team is different, so I dont think 2016 looms heavy on anyone but the OG vets.
Their BABIP from 2020 is unsustainable. They are experiencing regression to the mean.
The Giants LOL!
Seriously, watching this team puts a big smile on my face. I love it. Go Giants!
Was honestly expecting a RightySpecialist/DubsDynasty/TonyGwynn troll post. Got me it the first half not gonna lie
I’ve said before, this Giant team’s success is as unlikely as the 1967 Red Sox; a team with some decent players, surrounded by a bunch of guys the GM picked up at the bus station.
And they’ve got that guy with the funny name in the OF…..
Duggar is definitely a unique name, but he’s been doing great.
Am I the only one who thought he was gonna get designated for assignment after seeing the word “designate”?
