Thairo Estrada - Returns to spring lineup Estrada (forearm) will start at shortstop and bat cleanup Thursday in the Giants' Cactus League game against the White Sox, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Estrada is back in the lineup for the first time since getting hurt in his spring debut Saturday, when he was hit in the right forearm by a pitch. Since he missed less than a week of action, Estrada shouldn't be too disadvantaged as he looks to break camp with the Giants as a utility man. He performed reasonably well over a sample of 132 plate appearances with San Francisco in 2022, reaching base at a .333 clip while slugging 11 extra-base hits, including seven home runs.

Tommy La Stella - Opening Day in play La Stella (Achilles) said Wednesday he believes he can be ready for Opening Day, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact La Stella is returning from surgery in October to address sheath inflammation in his left Achilles, and he's progressed most of the way through his rehab work. The 33-year-old has yet to run full sprints on the bases, and he could see game action shortly after being cleared to do so. Even if he's not quite ready for Opening Day, La Stella shouldn't miss too much time early in the season, assuming he can avoid any setbacks.

Mike Yastrzemski - Works out 2022 contract with Giants Yastrzemski and the Giants agreed Tuesday on a one-year, $3.7 million deal to avoid arbitration, Jon Heyman of MLB Network reports.
Impact Yastrzemski is entering his first year of arbitration in 2022 after three seasons as a regular in the San Francisco lineup. Though his batting average and on-base percentage took a steady dive in 2021 compared to the previous two years, Yastrzemski was able to maintain his slugging production (25 home runs) while relying on a heavy volume of plate appearances to finish with 75 runs, 71 RBI and four stolen bases. He may sit more frequently against left-handed pitching in 2022, but Yastrzemski should continue to find himself in a prominent spot in the lineup versus righties.
