Casey Schmitt - Getting treatment on ankle Schmitt is receiving treatment on his ankle after rolling it during Saturday's game against the Brewers, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Schmitt was able to stay in the game, but it was clearly bothering the infielder for the remainder of Saturday's win for the Giants over the Brewers. He should be considered day-to-day at this stage.

Brandon Crawford - Remains on bench Saturday Crawford is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Brewers, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact A three-time All-Star and two-time World Series champion, Crawford is batting just .172/.252/.323 so far to begin his age-36 season. This marks his third consecutive absence against right-handed pitching, so it looks like Crawford is being phased out as the primary shortstop in favor of Casey Schmitt. Brett Wisely is at second base again Saturday in place of Thairo Estrada (wrist), who was placed on the 10-day injured list.

David Villar - Rejoins big-league team Villar was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on Saturday.
Impact Thairo Estrada was placed on the 10-day injured list with a left wrist sprain, opening the door for Villar to return after a couple weeks in the minors. Villar struggled to the tune of a .148/.240/.318 line in his prior stint with the Giants this season, fanning in exactly one-third of his plate appearances. He figures to serve primarily as a bench piece with perhaps occasional starts against left-handed pitching.
MAY 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Thairo Estrada - Lands on injured list Estrada (wrist) was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday, retroactive to May 26.
Impact Manager Gabe Kapler seemed to downplay the severity of the wrist issue Friday when he indicated Estrada could be available to pinch hit against Milwaukee. However, the injury is now being classified as a sprain, and it will sideline Estrada until at least June 6. Brett Wisely is serving as the Giants' starting second baseman again Saturday while David Villar is now back with the club to provide depth to the infield.

Thairo Estrada - Sitting again Saturday Estrada (wrist) remains out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Brewers.
Impact Brett Wisely will get another turn at second base as Estrada continues to nurse a sore left wrist. Manager Gabe Kapler said Friday that Estrada could be able to pinch hit, and while Estrada did not end up making an appearance off the bench in the second game of the series, it's possible he's available Saturday in some capacity.

Mike Yastrzemski - Posts three-hit effort Yastrzemski went 3-for-5 with a double and two runs scored in Friday's 15-1 win over the Brewers.
Impact Yastrzemski went 0-for-18 over his first five games back from a hamstring injury, but he's now hit safely in four straight, going 6-for-15 with two doubles in that span. The outfielder has resumed a starting role in the Giants' lineup, though he could slip into a platoon in center field once Austin Slater (hamstring) gets back. Yastrzemski's .264/.317/.450 slash line is his best since 2020, and he's added five home runs, 14 RBI, 22 runs scored and nine doubles with no stolen bases through 139 plate appearances.
MAY 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Patrick Bailey - First career four-hit game Bailey went 4-for-5 with a double, three RBI and a run scored in Friday's 15-1 win over the Brewers.
Impact Bailey hit safely in four of the first five games in which he recorded an at-bat. He was able to enjoy his first big game Friday in the blowout win. Bailey's seeing consistent playing time, and he's done well with it, logging three extra-base hits and seven RBI while batting. 364 through 24 plate appearances.
MAY 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
J.D. Davis - Big power display Friday Davis went 3-for-6 with two doubles, a home run, three runs scored and three RBI in Friday's 15-1 rout of the Brewers.
Impact He launched a two-run shot in the seventh inning off Ethan Small, padding the Giants' already huge lead. Davis' bat has slowed down a little in May, but he's still slashing a solid .267/.345/.467 through 23 games on the month with three homers, 11 runs and 12 RBI.
MAY 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Brett Wisely - Pops second homer Wisely went 2-for-5 with a double, a three-run home run and a second run scored in Friday's 15-1 rout of the Brewers.
Impact He took Freddy Peralta deep in the third inning as part of a seven-run frame for the Giants. Wisely's only other homer this season came May 6, and while his .240/.269/.420 slash line on the month is a step up from his seasonal numbers, and the 24-year-old utility player could pick up more playing time at the keystone if Thairo Estrada's sore wrist becomes a bigger issue.
MAY 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Mitch Haniger - Belts third homer Haniger went 3-for-5 with a double, a home run, two runs scored and four RBI in Friday's 15-1 rout of the Brewers.
Impact The 32-year-old snapped a 19-game power drought with the performance, and Haniger's only two other homers this season came at high altitude during a two-game set in Mexico City at the end of April. During the month of May, he's slashing a weak .195/.215/.273 with a 32.9 percent strikeout rate against a 2.5 percent walk rate.
MAY 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Tristan Beck - Sharp in three-inning save Beck gave up a hit and struck out two over 3.1 scoreless innings to record his first career save in Friday's 15-1 rout of the Brewers.
Impact Milwaukee offered little resistance in this one, and Beck tossed an efficient 33 pitches (26 strikes) to close out the victory. The 26-year-old rookie has held the opposition scoreless in only four of his nine appearances since his promotion in late April, however, and his 4.63 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 20:4 K:BB through 23.1 innings don't suggest he's going to see regular higher-leverage work any time soon.
MAY 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Alex Wood - Cruises to first win Wood (1-0) picked up the win Friday in a 15-1 rout of the Brewers, allowing one run on three hits and five walks over 5.2 innings. He struck out five.
Impact The southpaw threw only 55 of 93 pitches for strikes, but he was able to avoid any significant damage from his control issues and got staked to a 10-1 lead in the third inning. It was the first time this season Wood has been able to complete five innings, and he'll take a 3.51 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 26:13 K:BB through 25.2 innings into his next outing, likely to come at home next week against the Pirates.
