Three hits in win Wade went 3-for-4 with an RBI and a walk in Wednesday's win over the Rockies.

Impact Wade notched three singles in the contest, most notably driving in Luis Gonzalez with an RBI single in the eighth. He now has four hits in 12 at-bats since being activated off the injured list May 6, adding a homer and five RBI over that stretch. Wade looks to be picking up where he left off in 2021.

Hits bench Monday Wade will sit Monday against the Rockies, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact Wade hits the bench against lefty Austin Gomber. Since his return from a knee injury Friday, he's started against two righties while sitting against a pair of southpaws. Mike Yastrzemski will shift to right field in his absence, with Mauricio Dubon starting in center.

First hit leaves yard Wade went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Cardinals.

Impact Wade's first hit of the season was a second-inning homer off Cardinals starter Dakota Hudson. This was just the third game of the year (second start) for Wade, who began the season on the injured list with a knee injury that had kept him out of action since March 28. The 28-year-old has made both of his starts in right field, though manager Gabe Kapler is understandably being cautious with him after his month-long layoff. Expect Wade to be in the lineup against most right-handed pitchers, though he could settle into a bench role when opponents have a southpaw starting on the mound.

Activated Friday Wade (knee) as activated from the 10-day injured list prior to Friday's game against the Cardinals, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Impact Wade, who is eligible at first base and the outfield in most formats, will likely start primarily against right-handed pitching and will therefore likely be in Friday's lineup against Jordan Hicks. He hit .238/.433/.476 with seven walks, zero strikeouts and one home run in seven rehab games.

Expected back Friday Wade (knee) is expected to be activated from the 10-day injured list Friday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact There was a chance for Wade to make his season debut Thursday, but he experienced soreness in his knee, per Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle. The renewed soreness isn't believed to be a serious issue. Wade participated in seven games with Triple-A Sacramento while on a rehab assignment, and he collected five hits in 21 at-bats. He should return to the large side of a platoon in left field, sharing at-bats with Darin Ruf and Austin Slater.

Another rehab appearance on tap Wade (knee) is in the lineup at Triple-A Sacramento on Wednesday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact The Giants were initially optimistic that Wade could be back with the major-league club as early as Tuesday, but he'll appear in at least one more rehab game. He's posted a 1.088 OPS over six rehab games, so it's possible he'll rejoin the Giants when they return home Thursday.

Making another rehab appearance Wade (knee) will make another rehab appearance for Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reports.

Impact Reports from over the weekend indicated that Wade could return to action Tuesday, but he'll evidently need at least one more game before he's cleared for his season debut. He certainly looks ready judging by his performance, as he owns a 1.238 OPS through five rehab games, so his rehab assignment likely won't stretch on for too much longer.

Could be back Tuesday Manager Gabe Kapler said Saturday that Wade (knee) could be available to return from the 10-day injured list during the Giants' two-game series with the Dodgers that begins Tuesday...

Impact Kapler's comments came after Wade made his fifth rehab appearance with Triple-A Sacramento on Saturday. For the first time during his stint in the minors, Wade played a full nine-inning game in the outfield Saturday, and he finished with a double and three walks across his six plate appearances. Wade certainly looks to have moved past the knee injury based on his performance at the dish, as he's submitted a 1.238 OPS over his 21 plate appearances at Triple-A. Whenever he's reinstated from the IL, Wade should reclaim a strong-side platoon role in the outfield.

Impact Wade has made four rehab appearances and has hit .364 with five RBI and four runs. Manager Gabe Kapler said the team will discuss whether Wade is ready to rejoin the major-league club following Friday's strong performance, but the Giants initially hoped that the 28-year-old would have a longer rehab assignment.

Making another rehab appearance Wade (knee) is expected to play five innings in a rehab game at Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reports.

Impact Wade began his rehab assignment in Sacramento on Saturday and went 0-for-2 with a run and a walk. Although he isn't expected to play a full game Tuesday, he seems to be making good progress in his recovery and should be in the mix to rejoin the Giants sometime this week or during their weekend series against the Nationals.
