    • Five-game hitting streak
      Alvarez went 2-for-3 with a walk Monday against the Athletics.

      Advice: Alvarez extended his hitting streak to five games with the performance, which was his fourth multi-hit performance in that span. He's also scored four runs and driven in another two during the sample. The strong stretch has also brought his batting average up to .264 across 180 plate appearances on the season, and that mark should continue to rise as the campaign progresses.

    • Giants place Michael Conforto (hamstring) on IL
      Giants placed OF Michael Conforto on the 10-day injured list with a right hamstring strain.

      Advice: The 31-year-old slugger sustained the injury as he was rounding first base during Saturday’s game against the Reds. No word yet on how long exactly he’ll be sidelined for. Luis Matos was recalled from Triple-A in a corresponding move to provide depth in the Giants’ outfield while Conforto is shelved. Rotoworld Sunday, 1:34 pm

    • Lands on IL with hamstring strain
      The Giants placed Conforto on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to a right hamstring strain.

      Advice: After Conforto left in the fourth inning of Saturday's win against the Reds, the hope was that the right hamstring strain was mild enough for the 31-year-old to be considered day-to-day. The MRI on Sunday revealed a more severe strain, and Conforto will be sidelined until at least May 22. In a corresponding move, the Giants recalled Luis Matos from Triple-A Sacremento.

    • 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

    • Getting Sunday off
      Young is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.

      Advice: Young will take a seat for the series finale after he went 2-for-17 with five walks, one double, one stolen base, three runs and one RBI while starting in each of Washington's last five games. Victor Robles will replace Young in center field while CJ Abrams takes over as Washington's leadoff hitter. Rotowire.com Sunday, 8:21 am
       
    • Hits game-tying blast
      Santander went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Saturday's 5-4 extra-innings win over the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: Santander's eighth-inning blast was what ultimately forced extra innings Saturday. The outfielder has gone deep three times and driven in seven runs over his last five games. For the season, Santander is sporting a .217/.301/.449 slash line with seven long balls, 25 RBI, 20 runs scored, nine doubles and a triple. He still has yet to attempt a stolen base this season. Santander's production is generally in line with what he did last year, aside from modest dips in his rate stats. Rotowire.com Saturday, 11:55 pm
       
    • 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
