Giants Exercise Club Option On Wilmer Flores

The San Francisco Giants exercised their 2025 club option on infielder Wilmer Flores, according to Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic. The 33-year-old appeared in only 71 games this past season before suffering a season-ending knee injury. Flores hit for a mere .207/.277/.318 line with just four home runs and 12 doubles. Under the hood, he posted a poor 27.6% hard-hit rate and 5.9% barrel rate. However, he did show a strong eye at the plate with a stellar 13.6% K rate and 13.9% whiff rate, which were among the highest marks last season. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his progress during Spring Training as Flores may miss some time early on in the season.

Wilmer Flores Won't Make It Back This Year

San Francisco Giants infielder Wilmer Flores (knee) will miss the rest of the season, manager Bob Melvin announced back on Aug. 6. Flores had a Tenex procedure on his right knee on Aug. 6 after being put on the injured list on July 25. He had returned from the same injury on July 9. The Giants moved Flores to the 60-day IL on Aug. 16. "He was fighting it all year and unfortunately, we're losing him for the rest of the year, which isn't ideal," Melvin said. It's possible that Flores' knee had been bothering him well before he was shut down for the year and had surgery, as he hit .206/.277/.318 with a .595 OPS, four home runs, 26 RBI and 19 runs scored in 214 at-bats for the Giants this year. It was a disappointment after one of his best offensive showings in 2023, when he hit .284/.355/.509 with 23 home runs, all career-highs. Flores could bounce back with better health next year, but don't count on it.

Wilmer Flores To Have Knee Surgery

San Francisco Giants infielder Wilmer Flores (knee) traveled to Los Angeles on Monday to undergo a Tenex procedure on his right knee with Dr. Steve Yoon that is scheduled for Tuesday. Flores is likely not going to be able to resume baseball activities for at least a couple of weeks after he goes under the knife, which may make it difficult for him to rejoin the Giants before the end of the regular season at the end of September. The 32-year-old veteran corner infielder hadn't been much help to fantasy managers in NL-only formats this year anyway, slashing just .206/.277/.318 with a .595 OPS, four home runs, 26 RBI and 19 runs scored in 214 at-bats as a utility infielder on the short side of a platoon at first base. The Giants acquired Mark Canha from the Detroit Tigers at last week's trade deadline, and he has essentially taken over first-base duties in San Fran against left-handers.
