San Francisco Giants second baseman Thairo Estrada (wrist) has been activated from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday. Estrada has been sidelined since late June due to left-wrist tendinitis. He could see an increased look at shortstop with Nick Ahmed being designated for assignment. On Tuesday, Estrada will play second base and bat seventh versus lefty Yusei Kikuchi. Fantasy managers who have Estrada rostered can get him back in their lineups on Tuesday.
San Francisco Giants second baseman Thairo Estrada (wrist, thumb) began a hitting program prior to Thursday's series finale against the hosting Atlanta Braves, and he will continue his progression during this weekend's series in Cleveland against the Guardians. Estrada is recovering from discomfort in his left wrist and thumb, but if he doesn't need a brief minor-league rehab assignment before returning to the Giants' infield, he'll be a candidate to be activated from the 10-day injured list promptly following the Midsummer Classic in mid-July. The 28-year-old Venezuelan infielder was batting just .231 (68-for-295) with a .640 OPS, nine home runs, 39 RBI, and one stolen base while regularly hitting in the lower part of San Fran's lineup in 77 games prior to the injuries, so he's not necessarily a must-stash player in shallow fantasy leagues. In the meantime, the lefty-hitting Brett Wisely will serve as the primary second baseman.
The San Francisco Giants placed second baseman Thairo Estrada (wrist, thumb) on the 10-day injured list ahead of Friday's series opener versus the division-rival Los Angeles Dodgers. Estrada has been bothered by left wrist and thumb discomfort recently, signaling for the Giants to suddenly send him to the IL before Friday's contest against the Dodgers. The 28-year-old Venezuelan infielder has been a pretty big disappointment from a fantasy perspective in 2024, batting .231 (68-for-295) with a .640 OPS, nine home runs, and just one stolen base in 77 games prior to the injuries, so he's not necessarily a must-stash player in shallow settings. The lefty-hitting Brett Wisely figures to take over as San Fran's primary second baseman for now but doesn't sport very much appeal at the moment, and the timing of Estrada's setbacks could make it difficult for him to return before the mid-July All-Star break.
San Francisco Giants second baseman Thairo Estrada is not in Thursday's lineup as the Giants open a three-game set against the St. Louis Cardinals at Rickwood Field in Birmingham, Alabama. Estrada has made 14 consecutive starts and will give keystone duties to Brett Wisely this evening. During this stretch, the 28-year-old has struggled with a .211/.250/.316 slash line with just one home run and eight RBI. Through 71 games this season, Estrada has posted a modest .240/.272/.396 line with nine long balls. Wisely will bat in the leadoff spot and has held a strong .299/.321/.442 line through 25 games this season. The 25-year-old infielder is worth a look in DFS this evening as he will face Andre Pallante, who has posted a high 5.56 ERA and 1.59 WHIP in 11 innings this month.
San Francisco Giants second baseman Thairo Estrada hit a three-run, walk-off homer to lift them to a 7-6 win over the Chicago Cubs on Monday. Estrada's homer was his ninth and capped off a night that saw him finish with two hits, four RBI, and a walk in five plate appearances. The home run snapped a string of 20 consecutive games where Estrada had not gone deep. He is slashing .243/.277/.401 with 39 RBI and 37 runs scored. Estrada's versatility as a middle infielder offers some value and remains a solid fantasy option in leagues with 12 or more teams.
