SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS NEWS

LaMonte Wade Jr. - Won't start Saturday Wade (side) will sit Saturday against the Dodgers, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact Wade was scratched Friday with tightness in his left side. It's possible that's the reason for his absence Saturday, but he was likely always going to sit against southpaw Julio Urias, so it isn't entirely clear if the injury is still bothering him. J.D. Davis will start at first base Saturday while Heliot Ramos starts in right field, the two spots Wade has most frequently occupied.

Mike Yastrzemski - Heads to bench Yastrzemski will hit the bench Saturday against the Dodgers, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact Yastrzemski has had more than a platoon role for most of the season, but his off day here against Julio Urias means he's now sat against six of the last eight lefties the Giants have faced. Lewis Brinson will get the start in center field.

SEPTEMBER 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Luis Ortiz - Optioned to Sacramento Ortiz was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Saturday.

Impact Ortiz joined the Giants' bullpen in early September and posted a 1.42 ERA and 0.79 WHIP in 6.1 innings over four relief appearances. He'll head back to the minors after Sean Hjelle was recalled Saturday.

Willie Calhoun - Sent back down Calhoun was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Saturday.

Impact Calhoun was recalled by the Giants on Monday and went 1-for-8 with an RBI, a walk and two strikeouts over four games with the big-league club. However, he'll head back to the minors after Heliot Ramos was called up Saturday.

SEPTEMBER 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Joc Pederson - Hits bench against southpaw Pederson will sit Saturday against the Dodgers, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact Pederson hasn't started against a southpaw since late July, so it's no surprise to see him on the bench here against Julio Urias. Thairo Estrada will start in left field in his absence.

SEPTEMBER 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Heliot Ramos - Recalled, starting Saturday Ramos was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento and is starting Saturday's game against the Dodgers.

Impact Ramos was sent to the minors in mid-June, and he slashed .233/.307/.335 with three home runs, 29 runs, 17 RBI and four stolen bases over 53 games following his demotion. He's starting in right field and batting ninth Saturday against the Dodgers and will be a candidate to see playing time against left-handed pitchers down the stretch.

SEPTEMBER 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Sean Hjelle - Called up Saturday Hjelle was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on Saturday.

Impact The 25-year-old spent just over a week in the minors but will rejoin the major-league club after Luis Ortiz was sent down Saturday. Hjelle will likely be available to serve as a bulk reliever behind opener John Brebbia during Saturday's matchup against the Dodgers.

SEPTEMBER 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

John Brebbia - Opening Saturday Brebbia will serve as an opener for Saturday's game against the Dodgers, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact Brebbia has tossed four scoreless innings over his last four appearances and will begin Saturday's game on the mound. He hasn't lasted longer than two innings in any of his outings this year, and Sean Hjelle will likely serve as a bulk reliever against the Dodgers.

Luis González - Goes 1-for-3 Gonzalez (back) went 1-for-3 with two strikeouts in Friday's 5-0 loss to the Dodgers.

Impact Gonzalez accounted for one of the Giants' three baserunners in the game. He missed one game with back soreness, but it's evidently a minor issue after he was able to replace LaMonte Wade (side) for Friday's game. Gonzalez has gone 5-for-20 (.250) across his last eight games, but he'll likely be limited to the strong side of a platoon in right field. He's slashing a middling .252/.322/.361 through 93 contests.

Logan Webb - Not sharp in loss Webb (13-9) took the loss Friday versus the Dodgers, allowing four runs on seven hits and two walks with two strikeouts in four innings.

Impact Webb kept the ball in the yard for the seventh time in his last eight starts, but the Dodgers were able to beat him with small ball. The right-hander threw 57 of 90 pitches for strikes in a lackluster start. His ERA rose to 3.02 with a 1.19 WHIP and 151:48 K:BB through 182 innings across 30 starts this year. Webb is projected for a daunting road start in Colorado next week.
