Likely to platoon again Wade has gone 3-for-14 with a home run and three RBI over his first five Cactus League games.
Impact Wade remains a strong-side platoon option at first base. The Giants' signing of Matt Chapman, who is likely for an everyday role at third base, has displaced J.D. Davis. Righty hitters like Davis and Wilmer Flores could fill in at first base against opposing southpaws. Wade partially got back to his 2021 form last season, hitting .256 with a .790 OPS, 17 home runs, 45 RBI and 64 runs scored across a career-high 135 games.

Impact Wade tied the game at 2-2 with his fifth-inning blast. He'd sat out the last two games with the Giants facing left-handed starters in each of those contests. Through 17 games in September, Wade has gone 18-for-52 (.346) with four homers and 10 RBI. The first baseman is at a .262/.376/.428 slash line with 17 long balls, 45 RBI, 63 runs scored and two stolen bases through 130 games this season in a strong-side platoon role.

Wade's blast was one of three hits for the visitors, and they added four walks while putting just two runners past first base for the rest of the game. The 29-year-old is up to 16 homers this year, two shy of matching his total from 2021. He's added 43 RBI, 62 runs scored, two stolen bases and a .263/.377/.424 slash line over a career-high 128 games.

Impact Wade remains limited to a strong-side platoon role, but he's thrived with that usage in September. He's gone 9-for-24 (.375) with four RBI over seven contests this month, and his RBI single in the 10th inning Monday was a walk-off hit. The first baseman is up to .258/.374/.407 slash line with 14 home runs, 39 RBI, 57 runs scored and two stolen bases over 120 contests this year. After hitting leadoff against right-handers for much of the year, Wade has been deeper in the lineup for the last three games while Mike Yastrzemski gets the leadoff nod.
