Giants' LaMonte Wade: Knocks in three runs Friday
Wade went 1-for-3 with one run scored, two walks and three RBI in Friday's 9-1 rain-shortened win over the Yankees.
Wade played a big role in chasing Marcus Stroman out of the first inning, when the former smacked a double to right field to bring home Matt Chapman and Heliot Ramos. Wade brought home another run in the sixth frame when he drew a bases-loaded walk at the top of the sixth inning in what was ultimately the final play of the game due to inclement weather. Wade entered Friday's game having gone 0-for-15 with seven strikeouts over his last five games and was demoted from the leadoff to the sixth spot in the lineup, so his bounce-back effort is hopefully a sign of things to come for the 31-year-old first baseman.

Giants' Jung Hoo Lee: Cranks first homer of 2025
Lee went 1-for-2 with two walks and a three-run home run in Friday's 9-1 rain-shortened win over the Yankees.
Lee started the Giants' onslaught in the first inning when he smashed a three-run homer off Marcus Stroman to right-center field. Lee drove home three of Giants' five first-inning runs as they successfully chased Stroman out of the frame after recording only two outs. It was Lee's first homer of the year, and he's started the 2025 campaign slashing .340/.404/.596 with three stolen bases, 13 runs scored, one home run and seven RBI across 49 plate appearances.

Giants' Robbie Ray: Earns win in shortened game
Ray (3-0) earned the win in Friday's rain-shortened game against the Yankees. He allowed one run on two hits and four walks while striking out seven across four innings.
Ray was given a five-run cushion to work with after the Giants hitters chased Marcus Stroman out of the first inning. Despite the shortened outing, Ray still needed 98 pitches (56 strikes) to get through four innings, but he was still credited with his third win of the year since the Giants played only five innings on defense. Ray has started the season with a 2.93 ERA and 1.24 WHIP across 15.1 innings. He's lined up to face the Phillies on the road next week, when he'll look to go 4-0.

Bailey went 2-for-4 with a triple, a double, a run scored and an RBI in Wednesday's 8-6 extra-inning win over the Reds.
Bailey lined his third career triple into right field during the sixth frame, cutting the deficit to two runs after driving in Wilmer Flores. Bailey logged his second multi-hit effort over 12 appearances, following a lackluster four-game stretch in which he went 0-for-9 at the plate. The defensive stalwart has recorded at least one hit in three games thus far, slashing .194/.265/.355 with five runs, four extra-base hits and three RBI across 34 plate appearances.

Giants' Mike Yastrzemski: Cracks walk-off homer Wednesday
Yastrzemski went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run, an additional run and a double in Wednesday's 8-6 extra-inning win over Cincinnati.

Yastrzemski has now recorded at least one hit in five straight appearances, including two doubles and two home runs. The veteran outfielder has been highly productive to start the 2025 campaign, slashing .344/.462/.594 with six RBI, five runs, four extra-base hits and two stolen bases across 39 plate appearances.

Giants' Wilmer Flores: Continues to pile up RBI in win
Flores went 3-for-4 with a home run, two RBI and two runs scored in Wednesday's 8-6 extra-inning win over the Reds.
After lining an RBI single in the sixth frame, Flores tied the game at 6-6 with a solo homer off Reds right-hander Tony Santillan in the eighth inning. The veteran infielder is searching for a bounce-back campaign in 2025, and he's off to a fast start by batting .273 with five long balls, 14 RBI and seven runs scored over 44 at-bats (12 games) to open the season.

Giants' Justin Verlander: Runs into trouble in third inning
Verlander didn't factor into the decision Wednesday against the Reds after allowing six runs (five earned) on five hits and three walks in 5.2 innings. He struck out nine.
The veteran right-hander did tally his most strikeouts in a start since May of last season, but he ran into trouble after tossing two scoreless frames to open the game. A TJ Friedl double plated one run, an Elly De La Cruz double brought in two more and a Gavin Lux two-run single completed a five-run third inning for the Reds. Due to a Willy Adames fielding error earlier in the frame, an unearned run was charged to Verlander after the righty was pulled in the sixth. With a scheduled matchup in Philadelphia on tap for early next week, Verlander will be tough to trust from a fantasy perspective for that game.

Giants' Landen Roupp: Tough-luck loss Tuesday
Roupp (0-1) took the loss Tuesday as the Giants were downed 1-0 by the Reds, allowing one run on seven hits over six innings. He struck out four without walking a batter.
it was the first career quality start for the 26-year-old right-hander, who tossed 51 of 80 pitches for strikes before begin lifted from his pitchers' duel with Nick Lodolo. Roupp sports a 3.60 ERA and 12:4 K:BB through 10 innings over his first two outings of the season, but he lines up for a tough test his next time out, on the road early next week in Philadelphia.

Giants' Hayden Birdsong: Strong start to season continues
Birdsong threw three scoreless innings during Tuesday's 1-0 loss to the Reds, allowing a hit and a walk while striking out two.
Birdsong threw 25 of his 39 pitches for strikes during his third appearance of the season. The 23-year-old gave up a double to begin the ninth frame, but he kept his composure and retired Cincinnati's next three hitters. Manager Bob Melvin said postgame, "The velocity's been there out of the bullpen as well, all his pitches working -- he just looks like he's really confident," according to Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle. Birdsong has recorded a 0.00 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and a 6:3 K:BB over seven innings so far this season.

Giants' Casey Schmitt: Impressive performance in loss
Schmitt went 2-for-3 with a double during Tuesday's 1-0 loss to the Reds and could be in the mix for more playing time moving forward, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
The 26-year-old drew the start at first base before being moved to second in the eighth inning, following LaMonte Wade's entry into the game. Schmitt accounted for two of San Francisco's four hits in the low-scoring affair, including his first double of the season, which he lined into left field during the second frame. The utility infielder has the defensive ability to compete for more playing time, and he is now slashing .222/.300/.333 with a double across 10 plate appearances.

Giants' LaMonte Wade: Rough start continues Monday
Wade went 0-for-4 during Monday's 2-0 loss to the Reds.

However, Wade's struggles have continued in the Giants' last three games, as he's gone 0-for-11 while striking out six times. He's slashing .118/.162/.324 with four extra-base hits in 38 plate appearances this season.
