Thairo Estrada Goes Deep, Steals Base In Lineup Return

San Francisco Giants second baseman Thairo Estrada (illness), who returned to Saturday's lineup, went 1-for-5 with a home run, three RBI, and a stolen base in the 9-1 drubbing of the Colorado Rockies. The 27-year-old first snapped a 19-game homerless skid with a first-inning two-run shot. Estrada then stole his 20th base of the season after driving in a run on a fielders choice. The speedy infielder provides more value to the Giants with the glove than the stick, but he's still a useful source of batting average, runs, and speed for fantasy purposes. Estrada is batting .272 (113-for-415) with 11 homers, 44 RBI, 55 runs scored and the aforementioned 20 thefts.

Thairo Estrada Dealing With Conjunctivitis

San Francisco Giants second baseman Thairo Estrada (illness), who was scratched from Friday's lineup versus the Colorado Rockies, is experiencing conjunctivitis. Casey Schmitt watched the keystone and Paul DeJong entered the lineup to cover shortstop in his absence. As Estrada deals with pink eye, it leaves him day-to-day and with his status in question for Saturday's meeting. The speedy infielder has been quiet lately, showing a .226 batting average with just two extra-base hits, three runs scored, and no stolen bases over his last 53 at-bats covering 13 games. Schmitt is in line to gain the most playing time as long as Estrada is out.

Thairo Estrada Begins Hitting Progression

San Francisco Giants infielder Thairo Estrada (hand) began a hitting progression on Tuesday and also took groundballs. Meanwhile, outfielder Luis Gonzalez (back) is beginning a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Sacramento.

The 27-year-old will need to head out on a minor-league rehab assignment before he's activated.

San Francisco Giants manager Gabe Kapler said that infielder Thairo Estrada (hand) is expected to miss four to six weeks with a fractured left hand. The Giants put Estrada on the 10-day injured list on Monday after he was hit by a pitch on his left hand on Sunday, but he's obviously going to miss more than 10 days with his injury. It's a really tough break for the 27-year-old Venezuelan, as he was hitting .272/.327/.434 with nine long balls, 18 doubles, a triple, 31 RBI, 18 stolen bases and 46 runs scored in 315 trips to the plate over 70 games before his injury. Brett Wisely got the nod at the keystone in Monday's game and Casey Schmitt got the start there on Tuesday against the Seattle Mariners. Estrada is only five homers from his career-high in that category and is four stolen bases shy of setting a new career-high mark in thefts.
