  • Keaton Winn (forearm) activated for start vs. TEX
    Giants activated RHP Keaton Winn off the 15-day injured list.

    Advice: Winn is back to start Sunday against the Rangers as the Giants go for the sweep in the three-game set. To make room for the 26-year-old on the active roster, the Giants optioned Tyler Fitzgerald to Triple-A Sacramento. Rotoworld 17 minutes ago
     
  • Idle vs. southpaw
    Naylor is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Marlins.

    Advice: With Miami sending southpaw Trevor Rogers to the mound Sunday, the lefty-hitting Naylor will begin the contest in the dugout while David Fry gets the start behind home plate. It's the third straight game Naylor has not started, and the 24-year-old has struggled at the plate since May 1, slashing .152/.186/.227 with a 32.9 percent strikeout rate over 66 at-bats during that span.

  • Activated for Sunday's start
    Winn (forearm) was reinstated from the 15-day injured list ahead of his start against the Rangers on Sunday, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Advice: The right-hander landed on the shelf in mid-May with a forearm strain, but he'll rejoin the Giants' rotation after being sidelined for less than a month. Winn delivered three straight quality starts in April but struggled in his final three outings before going to the injured list with 17 runs allowed and a 5:5 K:BB over 8.1 innings.

  • Nelson Velazquez out of lineup Sunday vs. Mariners
    Nelson Velazquez is not in the lineup Sunday against the

    Advice: Salvador Perez is the designated hitter for Sunday’s tilt against the Mariners, so Velazquez will retreat to the bench for the finale. The outfielder went 1-for-7 over the first two games of the series and has hit just .133 with a .544 OPS in the month of June. Rotoworld 21 minutes ago
     
  • Returns to Triple-A
    Fitzgerald was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Sunday, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Advice: The 26-year-old was originally in the lineup for Sunday's series finale in Texas but will instead lost his place on San Francisco's roster. Fitzgerald has been a solid bench piece for the Giants this season with a .273/.333/.409 slash line in 72 plate appearances, but for now he'll head back to the minors.

  • Nico Hoerner (hand) out again Sunday vs. Reds
    Nico Hoerner (hand) is not in the starting lineup Sunday against the Reds.

    Advice: Hoerner is dealing with a small fracture in his right hand, and he won’t be able to play until the pain and swelling are able to subside. While Hoerner is out, Michael Busch will handle second base duties. Hoerner should be considered day-to-day, but a trip to the injured list can’t be ruled out just yet. Rotoworld 28 minutes ago

  • Batting leadoff Sunday
    Perez is starting in right field and batting first in Sunday's game against the Brewers.

    Advice: Perez wasn't in the starting lineup Saturday, though he did appear as a pinch-hitter, and he'll be back in there Sunday. The 24-year-old rookie is 0-for-12 across his last four games, which has lowered his batting average from .268 to .247. Despite the recent slump, Perez should continue to see semi-regular playing time moving forward, mixing in with Riley Greene, Matt Vierling and Akil Baddoo in Detroit's outfield.

  • Seiya Suzuki (side) back in lineup Sunday
    Seiya Suzuki (side) is the designated hitter and hitting second against the Reds on Sunday.

    Advice: Suzuki missed a couple of games while dealing with tightness in his side/oblique, but he’s back in the lineup for Sunday’s tilt against Cincinnati. The outfielder has dealt with injuries over his first two-plus years in the majors, but he has shown fantasy upside when he’s in the lineup. Rotoworld 30 minutes ago
