Thairo Estrada News
San Francisco Giants second baseman Thairo Estrada went 1-for-4 with his first home run of the season, two RBI, a run scored and two strikeouts in Sunday's 13-4 loss to the San Diego Padres to wrap up the team's first series of the year. In the four-game series in San Diego, which ended in a split, Estrada went 4-for-15 (.267) with the home run, four RBI, two runs scored and four strikeouts. The 28-year-old has hit safely in each of the first four games of the year. He's off to a solid start in 2024 after slashing .271/.315/.416 with a career-high-tying 14 home runs, 49 RBI, a career-high 23 stolen bases and 63 runs scored in 120 games in 2023. Estrada doesn't do anything overly impressive, but his role as San Fran's everyday second baseman gives him fantasy value as a middle-infield option in deep-mixed leagues.
San Francisco Giants second baseman Thairo Estrada went 1-for-3 with a double in Saturday's 3-2 Cactus League loss to the San Diego Padres. It was Estrada's first extra-base hit of the spring, and he's now 4-for-15 (.267) with a run scored, no walks, and four strikeouts through five spring games. Estrada is projected to hit out of the second spot in the Giants lineup and has decent contact skills to go along with his ability to steal bases, but his current NFBC ADP of 135 is a bit rich. RotoBaller ranks him at 150 overall.
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.

San Francisco Giants infielder Thairo Estrada finished 2023 with a .271 batting average, 14 home runs, 49 RBI, 63 runs, and 23 stolen bases. His season was interrupted by injuries that limited him to 120 games, including a hand fracture that took him out of action for a month after getting hit by a pitch on July 3. Estrada's batting average was buoyed by a .331 BABIP and his average exit velocity of 85.9 MPH ranked him in the fourth percentile of qualified major leaguers. His walk rate decreased from 6.1% in 2022 to 4.2%, putting him in the third percentile of that category. He is projected to hit second in the Giants' lineup in 2024 but he will not last long there if he cannot get on base. Another 20-steal season is in reach, and he has eligibility at three positions (2B, SS, and OF) but that is where Estrada's fantasy appeal ends. Taking a chance on Estrada at his 144.3 ADP is unnecessary when there are plenty of other second basemen that fit his profile available further down the board.
