Tommy La Stella - Ramps up running intensityLa Stella (Achilles) has ramped up his running intensity recently, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reports.

ImpactLa Stella resumed baseball activities approximately two weeks ago, and it's encouraging that he's now been able to increase his running intensity. The Giants haven't yet provided a timetable for the 33-year-old's return to game action, but it's possible he'll require a rehab assignment since he was also limited during spring training.

Anthony DeSclafani - Visiting ankle specialistDeSclafani (ankle) is visiting an ankle specialist, Dr. Robert Anderson, Monday in Green Bay, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reports.

ImpactThe right-hander was placed on the injured list with right ankle inflammation Friday and will head up to Green Bay with the Giants in Milwaukee for one game. DeSclafani battled the same injury during 2021, and his fastball velocity this season was down about two mph before landing on the shelf. The 32-year-old remains without an official timeline for his return, though that could come into focus following Monday's evaluation.

Alex Cobb - Throwing off moundCobb (groin) will throw off a mound Monday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

ImpactCobb resumed playing catch Friday, and he'll be able to resume mound work less than a week after he landed on the 10-day injured list with a Grade 1 groin strain. He's eligible to return to game action as early as April 30, and he's made encouraging progress in his recovery so far. However, a better idea of the right-hander's status will likely be revealed based on how he feels following Monday's throwing session.

Austin Slater - Not starting MondaySlater isn't starting Monday's game against the Brewers.

ImpactAlthough Mike Yastrzemski (illness) was placed on the COVID-19 injured list Monday, Slater will be out of the lineup for a third straight game with right-hander Corbin Burnes on the mound for Milwaukee. Darin Ruf, Luis Gonzalez and Joc Pederson will start in the outfield from left to right.

Curt Casali - Sharing work with Bart of lateCasali will start at catcher and bat ninth in Monday's game against the Brewers.

ImpactCasali has now picked up five starts behind the plate over the Giants' last 10 games, with nominal No. 1 catcher Joey Bart receiving the same workload. Manager Gabe Kapler hasn't suggested that the two backstops will be deployed in a timeshare all season, but Casali at least looks as though he'll play more frequently than the typical No. 2 catcher. Casali has yet to offer much from a fantasy perspective this season, as he enters Monday's game with a .158/.200/.211 slash line and 45 percent strikeout rate across 20 plate appearances.

Joey Bart - Takes seat MondayBart is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Brewers.

ImpactBart and Curt Casali will alternate turns behind the dish for the 10th consecutive game. Manager Gabe Kapler hasn't suggested that the two backstops will work in a timeshare moving forward, so Bart can probably be viewed as the nominal No. 1 option for the time being.
