  • Not starting Saturday
    Freeman is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the White Sox.

    Advice: Freeman broke a three-game hitless streak during Friday's 6-3 loss when he swatted a solo home run, his first since April 19. Ramon Laureano will start in center field Saturday and bat sixth against White Sox right-hander Mike Clevinger. Rotowire.com 41 minutes ago

  • Giants recall Brett Wisely on Saturday

  • Starting at DH amid stiffness
    Marte is starting at designated hitter Saturday for the second day in a row due to his body feeling a little stiff, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: He socked his eighth home run of the season Friday to extend his hit streak to 11 games. Marte should return to the keystone once he feels right. Blaze Alexander has started each of the last two games at second base. Rotowire.com Today, 11:49 am
     
  • Recalled from Triple-A
    Williams was recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis prior to Saturday's game against the Cubs, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

    Advice: Ke'Bryan Hayes was placed on the injured list with a back issue, so Williams could see some reps in the infield in the short term. Williams was optioned Friday and never actually got into a Triple-A game. He has a .239/.271/.348 slash line with zero home runs and one steal in 51 plate appearances in the majors.

  • Takes batting practice Saturday
    LeMahieu (foot) participated in batting practice Saturday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: LeMahieu traveled with the team to Tampa Bay and hit off JT Brubaker on Saturday. LeMahieu continues to ramp up his activities as he works his way back from the non-displaced right foot fracture he sustained in spring training. The veteran infielder could be close to starting a rehab assignment, barring any setbacks. LeMahieu made a rehab appearance April 23 with Double-A Somerset, but he was pulled from the game after the first inning due to swelling in his right foot. Rotowire.com Today, 11:07 am

    Torres is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Ray, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

    Advice: Torres will not start for the first time since April 20 against Tampa Bay, though he did pinch hit in that contest. Torres is 5-for-30 with five walks and a solo home run in May, and he is coming off an 0-for-4 outing with one strikeout in Friday's win. Oswaldo Cabrera will shift to second base Saturday, while Jon Berti gets the start at third. Rotowire.com Today, 10:46 am
