  • Giants recall Tyler Fitzgerald on Tuesday
    Giants recalled INF/OF Tyler Fitzgerald from Triple-A Sacramento.

    Advice: Fitzgerald is back with San Francisco after launching six homers in six games over the last week for Triple-A Sacramento. The 26-year-old figures to come off the bench for the Giants as extra depth moving forward. He’s gotten into 22 contests this season in the big leagues, batting .269 (14-for-52) with one homer and four steals. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:59 pm
     
  • Recalled from Triple-A
    The Giants recalled Fitzgerald from Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Advice: Fitzgerald was sent to the minors May 20 following the addition of Ryan McKenna from Baltimore. However, Fitzgerald has gone 11-for-25 with six homers and 13 RBI in just six games since joining Sacramento, so the Giants will bring him back up to the majors and look to take advantage of his hot bat. The 26-year-old owns a .269/.309/.442 slash line in 55 MLB plate appearances this year, and his return will cause the dismissal of McKenna, who was DFA'd in a corresponding move.

  • Absent from starting nine
    Urshela is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Pirates.

    Advice: The Tigers will reward Matt Vierling's two-homer performance Sunday by giving him another start at the hot corner, pushing Urshela out of the starting lineup against Jared Jones. Urshela is slashing .273/.312/.318 without a home run across 93 plate appearances this season. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:53 am

  • Chris Taylor playing third base against Mets
    Chris Taylor is starting at third base and hitting seventh for the first game of a doubleheader against the Mets on Tuesday.

    Advice: Taylor is starting at the hot corner for the first time in 2024. The 33-year-old veteran has been atrocious so far in 2024 with a .101 average and .338 OPS over the first third of the campaign. Enrique Hernandez takes a seat for the first game of the twin-billing.

  • Gaining playing time at shortstop
    Wisely went 2-for-4 with a double and two RBI in Monday's 8-4 win over the Phillies.

    Advice: After being called up from Triple-A Sacramento on May 11, Wisely started in just one of the ensuing 10 games, but the 25-year-old since appears to have moved into the strong side of a platoon at shortstop with Marco Luciano. Wisely has started in each of the last three games and in three of the Giants' previous four matchups with right-handed starting pitchers, going a collective 9-for-15 with a home run, a double, a stolen base, five RBI and three runs during that stretch. So long as he's swinging a hot bat, Wisely should continue to play ahead of Luciano until Nick Ahmed (wrist) is reinstated from the injured list. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:31 am

  • Starts up rehab assignment
    Jones (undisclosed) began a rehab assignment with the Rockies' rookie-level Arizona Complex League affiliate Monday, going 0-for-2 with a walk, a run and an RBI while playing five innings at shortstop.

    Advice: Jones has been on Triple-A Albuquerque's 7-day injured list for more than a month with an unspecified injury, but he looks to be closing in on a return. The 26-year-old hit .250 with a home run and 12 stolen bases in 17 games for Albuquerque prior to being deactivated. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:04 am
