    • Michael Conforto (hamstring) remains out Sunday
      Michael Conforto (hamstring) remains out of the lineup Sunday against the Reds.

      Advice: Conforto left Saturday’s game with a hamstring strain, and he’ll sit for at least one contest while recovering from the injury. The 31-year-old sits with Heliot Ramos getting a start in left field. Rotoworld Sunday, 11:08 am
       
    • Not starting Sunday
      Conforto (hamstring) is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Reds, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

      Advice: Conforto left in the bottom of the fourth inning in Saturday's 5-1 win, and Giants manager Bob Melvin described the right hamstring strain as "mild," per John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle. With Conforto out of the lineup Sunday, Heliot Ramos will start in left field while Patrick Bailey serves as the designated hitter. Rotowire.com Sunday, 10:54 am
       
    • Sitting against southpaw
      Smith is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Rockies.

      Advice: The lefty-hitting Smith went 0-for-4 with a strikeout in Saturday's 8-3 loss. He will begin Sunday's contest on the bench as the Rockies send out southpaw Ty Blach. Ezequiel Duran will fill in for Smith at third base. Rotowire.com Sunday, 10:19 am

    • Smacks key homer
      Joe went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run Saturday against the Cubs.

      Advice: Joe lifted a three-run home run in the third inning, his fourth long ball of the campaign. He's hit well overall this season, which has helped him move from a short-side platoon role to a role as a near-everyday player. Joe has started eight of Pittsburgh's last 10 games, filling in for Rowdy Tellez at first base against lefties and for Michael Taylor in the outfield against righties. Rotowire.com Sunday, 12:15 am

    • Diagnosed with strained hamstring
      Conforto has been diagnosed with a strained right hamstring, John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

      Advice: For what it's worth, Giants manager Bob Melvin said of the strain that "it feels mild," but more will be known after Conforto undergoes an MRI on Sunday. Luis Matos was pulled mid-game from Triple-A Sacramento's contest Saturday and would appear poised to take Conforto's roster spot if a move is needed. Rotowire.com Saturday, 7:52 pm
       
    • Michael Conforto heading for MRI on hamstring
      Michael Conforto will undergo an MRI on Sunday after leaving Saturday’s game against the Reds with a right hamstring strain.

      Advice: Giants’ skipper Bob Melvin told reporters after Saturday’s game that the strain “feels mild”, but they won’t have any sort of timeline on his potential return until after Sunday’s exam. Luis Matos was pulled from his game at Triple-A Sacramento and would likely be summoned if Conforto is going to miss any time. Rotoworld Saturday, 7:41 pm
       
    • Leaves game with tight hamstring
      Conforto departed Saturday's game versus the Reds due to right hamstring tightness, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Conforto singled in the bottom of the fourth inning but had to be removed for a pinch runner. The Giants could have more on his status after the game. Conforto had the single and a strikeout in two plate appearances before exiting. Rotowire.com Saturday, 6:10 pm
       
    • Michael Conforto exits with apparent leg injury
      Michael Conforto was pulled from Saturday’s game against the Reds due to an apparent leg injury.

      Advice: Conforto rounded first base after singling off of Nick Lodolo in the fourth inning, but came up grabbing at his right leg, perhaps a hamstring. Mike Yastrzemski then came on to run for him. He’ll head for further evaluation to determine exactly what’s going on there. Expect the Giants to provide an update on his status as soon as more information becomes available. Rotoworld Saturday, 5:35 pm

      Advice: Stanton went 2-for-4 in the series opener Friday. Trent Grisham will start in center field while Aaron Judge shifts to DH against Rays right-hander Zack Littell. Rotowire.com Saturday, 10:36 am
