Jung Hoo Lee Fantasy Stats

San Francisco Giants outfielder Jung Hoo Lee (back) was activated off the 10-day Injured List on Friday. Lee will start in right field and bat sixth against right-hander Michael Lorenzen on Friday. Lee has been out since May 22 due to a back strain. Before the injury, Lee was slashing .268/.311/.385 with three home runs, 17 RBI, and 10 walks. He doesn't offer a ton of power upside with the bat, but he's a decent contact hitter. Lee does enough at the plate consistently to warrant a look in deep leagues for fantasy managers struggling to find production.

San Francisco Giants outfielder Jung Hoo Lee (back) was placed on the 10-day injured list on Friday with a mid-back strain, according to Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle. Lee was initially removed from Monday's game early with what the team was calling back spasms. He is not ready to play to kick off a series this weekend against the visiting Chicago White Sox, so he'll land on the IL. With Lee out again on Friday, Harrison Bader is sliding over to center field and will hit ninth, with Casey Schmitt in left field, and Drew Gilbert in right field for the Gigantes. Will Brennan will be another candidate to see more playing time in the outfield for however long Lee is out. The 27-year-old left-handed-hitting Japanese outfielder's fantasy stock was way down, even before his back injury. He offers modest production across the board and is currently hitting .268/.311/.385 with a .696 OPS, only three home runs, 17 RBI, and 20 runs scored in his 179 at-bats this year. Lee has slashed a mediocre .266/.321/.390 with a .712 OPS in his two-plus years in the Bay Area, and he's rostered in only 11% of Yahoo leagues.

San Francisco Giants outfielder Jung Hoo Lee (back) remains out of the team's starting lineup for Wednesday's series finale against the division-rival Arizona Diamondbacks, according to MLB.com. Drew Gilbert is making the start in center field and is batting ninth against D-backs right-hander Merrill Kelly. Lee is making progress since being removed from Monday's game in Arizona early with back spasms, but he will take a seat for the second straight game as a precaution. The Gigantes don't have a game on Thursday, so Lee may return to the starting nine for Friday's series opener against the Chicago White Sox. The 27-year-old Japanese native doesn't offer fantasy managers much in any one category, and he's currently slashing .268/.311/.385 with a .696 OPS, three home runs, 17 RBI, and 20 runs scored in 193 plate appearances across 48 games played in 2026. However, he's been better in May, going 13-for-46 (.283) with a homer and five RBI in 11 games. He's currently riding a modest five-game hitting streak.

San Francisco Giants outfielder Jung Hoo Lee (back) was pulled early from Monday's contest against the division-rival Arizona Diamondbacks with back spasms, according to Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle. Before leaving the game, Lee went 1-for-2 at the plate out of the leadoff spot for the Gigantes. He was replaced in right field by Will Brennan. Lee should be considered day-to-day for now, and he'll almost certainly be absent from the starting nine for Game 2 of the series in Arizona on Tuesday against the D-backs. Fantasy managers will want to check back later to see if Lee's back injury is serious enough to require a stint on the 10-day injured list. The 27-year-old Japanese native probably is not rostered in most mixed fantasy leagues after combining for only 10 home runs, 63 RBI, and 12 stolen bases in 187 games in his first two years in the big leagues. Going into Monday's action, Lee was hitting .266 (47-for-177) with only three homers, 17 RBI, and 20 runs across 191 plate appearances. He's currently rostered in only 12% of Yahoo leagues.

San Francisco Giants outfielder Jung Hoo Lee has been hitting well over the past few weeks after a slow start, improving his slash line to .281/.331/.413 on the season with two home runs, 11 RBI, and 14 runs scored. Lee has moved around a bit in the batting order, as the Giants' offense desperately has been searching for answers, as they rank last in runs scored on the season with 106. Lee remains a points league specialist, as he demonstrates excellent plate discipline with a solid on-base percentage. In category formats, he is a strong contributor to batting average or on-base percentage, which is about it, as the Giants' offense isn't producing tons of opportunities for runs or RBI at the moment, and Lee is not one to hit home runs, as he has hit only 12 in 908 plate appearances at the MLB level.

San Francisco Giants outfielder Jung Hoo Lee (leg) is starting in right field and is batting sixth on Wednesday against the division-rival Los Angeles Dodgers and right-hander Shohei Ohtani, according to MLB.com. Lee was pulled from Tuesday's series-opening win against L.A. in the sixth inning with a left-leg injury that he suffered while sliding into home plate. The injury turned out not to be very serious, though, and he's back in action a day later. The 27-year-old Japanese native hasn't been much of a fantasy asset in his two-plus years in the big leagues and played in only 37 games in his rookie campaign in 2024 due to injury. He's currently slashing .259/.311/.370 with a homer, nine RBI, and eight runs scored in 23 games played so far in 2026, but he's heating up of late with six multi-hit performances in his last 10 games while going 15-for-39 (.385) with a homer, four RBI, and three runs scored over that span. Lee is only rostered in 10% of Yahoo leagues because of his limited power/speed profile.

San Francisco Giants outfielder Jung Hoo Lee is expected to slide over to right field for the 2026 season, according to Justice delos Santos of The Mercury News. Lee played center field during his second campaign stateside last year, but he struggled in the field with -5.7 fWAR on defense and -5 OAA. The Giants' signing of defensive standout Harrison Bader will allow the Giants to shift Lee to right field, where his fielding concerns won't be as prevalent, but keep him in the lineup on an everyday basis. Last season, he slashed .266/.327/.407 with a 7.6% strikeout rate, a 11.5% strikeout rate, and 107 wRC+. As it stands, the 27-year-old ranks as the #73 outfielder in the latest fantasy baseball draft rankings for 2026.

San Francisco Giants outfielder Jung Hoo Lee is not in the lineup on Monday against St. Louis Cardinals right-hander Michael McGreevy. Drew Gilbert will take Lee's place in center field and bat ninth, while Jerar Encarnacion will play right and hit eighth. Although the lefty-swinging Lee has posted a respectable .269/.342/.419 line against righties this season, he's in the middle of a severe slump that has lasted almost two weeks. In nine games since Sept. 10, Lee has gone 2-for-28 with no extra-base hits, one RBI, three strikeouts, and three walks. Lee collected both of those singles in a 2-for-4 showing on Saturday, but after going 0-for-4 on Sunday, he'll head to the bench.

San Francisco Giants outfielder Jung Hoo Lee is out of the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Lee is now taking a seat for the second time in the last three games. His absence on Friday makes sense with left-hander Clayton Kershaw on the mound for Los Angeles. Lee has been struggling lately as he's hitless over his last 20 at-bats. Hopefully, a night off will help him get back on track. Drew Gilbert will take over in center field and bat ninth on Friday. Lee isn't someone that needs to be rostered in all 12-team formats right now.

San Francisco Giants outfielder Jung Hoo Lee is not in the lineup on Wednesday against Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Brandon Pfaadt. Drew Gilbert will take over in center field in Lee's place and bat ninth. While Lee has hit a solid .302/.375/.419 with a home run, four RBI, and seven runs scored in 12 games this month, he's now mired in an 0-for-17 slump that dates back to last Wednesday. Gilbert, meanwhile, has gone a productive 8-for-32 (.250/.306/.500) with two homers, a pair of doubles, five RBI, and six runs over 10 games in September.
