Nate Furman - Goes to SF to complete Cobb deal The Giants acquired Furman from the Guardians on Monday to complete the Alex Cobb trade, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

Impact Furman, 23, has slashed .294/.391/.438 with seven home runs and 10 stolen bases this season between High-A Lake County and Double-A Akron. The infielder has missed the last two months of action with a right shoulder strain and it's not clear what his current health status is.

Sean Hjelle - Takes fourth loss Hjelle (3-4) allowed three runs on four hits and struck out one over 2.2 innings to take the loss versus the Mariners on Sunday.

Over nine appearances this month, Hjelle has allowed six runs on 12 hits and two walks while striking out eight across 14.1 innings. He's at a 3.99 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 60:9 K:BB through 65.1 innings overall, and he's added four holds. Hjelle has lost his last three decisions and hasn't picked up a win since June 5.

Grant McCray - Crushes second homer McCray went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk Sunday against the Mariners.

Impact McCray's eighth-inning blast was his second of the season and pulled the Giants to within one. The rookie center fielder has shown some pop in his short stint in the majors, posting a .306 average through his first 36 at-bats with five of those 11 hits going for extra bases.

Heliot Ramos - Belts 20th homer Ramos went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run Sunday against the Mariners.

Impact Ramos reached the 20-homer plateau with a two-run blast in the first inning off Bryan Woo, representing the only damage the Giants could muster off the Seattle starter. Ramos later added an infield single off Woo and has collected multiple hits in three of his last four games with four of the six hits during that stretch going for extra bases. For the season, Ramos ranks within the top 25 in the majors in both batting average (.284) and OPS (.845).

Impact Ray had pitched three frames, allowing one run before he was forced to depart from the contest. The southpaw will look to take advantage of a few days off and return to the mound for his next projected start Saturday versus the Marlins.

Grant McCray - Posts steal Saturday McCray went 2-for-4 with a stolen base in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Mariners.

Impact This was McCray's third multi-hit effort over nine games. He's also gone hitless three times. The outfielder also notched his first steal and avoided striking out for just the second time. He's batting .273 with a home run, two RBI, two runs scored and three doubles while seeing everyday playing time in center field since his first call-up Aug. 14.

Thairo Estrada - Swipes bag in win Estrada went 2-for-4 with one RBI, a stolen base and one run scored in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Mariners.

Impact Estrada has gone 6-for-20 (.300) over five games since he returned from a wrist injury. The theft was just his second of the year, an unusually low mark given he topped 20 steals in each of the previous two years. Part of the issue has been a lack of opportunity -- Estrada is slashing just .221/.251/.352 over 92 contests this season. He's added nine home runs, 46 RBI, 43 runs scored, 15 doubles and two triples. Per Statcast, his sprint speed is at 28.0 feet per second, which is just 0.1 lower than last year, so it appears his drop in steals can be attributed to taking fewer chances rather than a meaningful drop in his abilities.

Mike Yastrzemski - Lifts 10th homer Yastrzemski went 3-for-5 with a solo home run, a double and an additional run scored in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Mariners.

Impact Yastrzemski had gone just 8-for-47 (.170) with no homers over his previous 14 games. The outfielder has four multi-hit efforts over 20 contests in August. He's now batting .242 with a .736 OPS, 10 homers, 40 RBI, 43 runs scored, 13 doubles, nine triples and three stolen bases over 111 games this season.

Spencer Bivens - Collects win Saturday Bivens (3-1) allowed two hits and struck out two over three scoreless innings to earn the win Saturday over the Mariners.

Impact Bivens was called on for a long-relief assignment after Blake Snell walked six batters and allowed two runs over the first three innings. This was a sharp performance for Bivens, though it was just his second scoreless outing out of five since he returned to the majors Aug. 15. For the year, he's posted a reliable 2.51 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 21:6 K:BB across 28.2 innings over 16 appearances (one start). He'll likely remain in a multi-inning role moving forward.

Tyler Fitzgerald - Swipes two bags in win Fitzgerald went 2-for-4 with a walk, a run scored, an RBI and two stolen bases in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Mariners.

Impact The shortstop has grown very comfortable in the leadoff spot for the Giants. Fitzgerald is batting .307 (27-for-88) through 21 games in August with five homers, nine steals, 10 RBI and 14 runs, and despite the fact that he didn't take over a full-time role until after the All-Star break, the 26-year-old has a legitimate shot at a 20-20 campaign -- he's up to 14 homers and 16 steals in only 68 contests.

AUGUST 25 • ROTOWIRE

Ryan Walker - Notches third save Walker gave up a hit and struck out two in a scoreless ninth inning Saturday to record his third save of the season in a 4-3 win over the Mariners.

Impact The right-hander continues to thrive in a high-leverage role. Walker hasn't allowed an earned run since July 27, and over 11 appearances since then he's posted a 0.63 WHIP and 24:2 K:BB in 12.2 innings to go along with his pristine ERA and all three of his saves. Camilo Doval was called back up Saturday and worked in a setup role ahead of Walker, but there's no sign that the former is going to get back into the closer mix for the Giants any time soon.
