Bryce Johnson - Posts steal as pinch runner Johnson stole a base as a pinch runner in Friday's 5-4 win over the Mets.
Impact Johnson has started just one of the last eight games since he was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento, even with injuries again piling up in the Giants' outfield. He remains mainly in a bench role, though he could get more of a look as long as Michael Conforto (hamstring) is sidelined. Johnson has two stolen bases, a home run, three RBI and six runs scored over 47 plate appearances this season.

Wilmer Flores - Goes yard Friday Flores went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Friday's 5-4 win over the Mets.
Impact Flores was able to do some damage in the series opener versus his former team. This was his first start since returning from a foot injury that sent him to the injured list. The infielder is up to eight home runs, 24 RBI, 21 runs scored and a .255/.318/.460 slash line through 55 contests this season. He was in a bench role for much of June prior to the injury, and he'll likely continue to be a short-side platoon option going forward.

Sean Manaea - Snags win Friday Manaea (3-3) earned the win Friday over the Mets, allowing a hit and striking out one in a scoreless inning.
Impact Manaea became the pitcher of record after Patrick Bailey's go-ahead home run in the eighth inning. It's a positive end to an otherwise rough month for Manaea, who has allowed nine runs over 15.2 innings across six appearances. He's been back in a traditional relief role over his last three outings after serving as a bulk reliever earlier in the month. For the season, the southpaw has a 5.68 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 67:22 K:BB through 52.1 innings over 18 appearances (six starts). With the Giants' rotation nearing full health again, he'll likely remain a reliever for the foreseeable future.
