Thairo Estrada Fantasy Stats

San Francisco Giants second baseman Thairo Estrada was outrighted to Triple-A Sacramento on Friday. The 28-year-old posted a .590 OPS in 381 PA this season, especially struggling over the last couple weeks by posting just a .486 OPS in 35 PA. Estrada had been dealing with a wrist injury he sustained in late July and hasn't quite regained his form from the first half of the season. With Estrada being demoted, Casey Schmitt is in place to get most of the starts at second base. His 82 wRC+ isn't quite that appealing, but it does outpace the production Estrada was giving San Francisco. The Giants also recalled Brett Wisely in a corresponding move with Estrada's demotion. Wisely's 82 wRC+ at the major league level gives the Giants similar production at second base. Only fantasy managers in deeper leagues should even be considering adding Schmitt or Wisely to their lineups. Other fantasy managers needing help at second base can likely find better options on the waiver wire.

San Francisco Giants infielder Thairo Estrada (wrist) has been activated from the 10-day injured list on Monday. Estrada appears ready to play again after being sidelined since late July due to a sprained wrist. He'll cover second base and bat eighth against right-hander Jonathan Cannon on Monday. Despite his struggles it doesn't look like Estrada has lost his starting spot on the team. He's slashing .216/.249/.343 with nine home runs and 43 RBI in 87 games this season. At this point, Estrada probably isn't worth rostering in most fantasy formats outside of deep leagues.

San Francisco Giants second baseman Thairo Estrada (wrist) is scheduled to begin a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday. Recovering from a sprained left wrist, Estrada is ready to get in some game action and should be back with the Giants either sometime later this week or early next week. The 28-year-old infielder has been a major disappointment in his fourth year with the Giants this season, slashing a pitiful .216/.249/.353 with nine home runs, 14 doubles, and 43 RBI over 329 at-bats. Although he makes for a weak stash overall in fantasy leagues, Estrada should return to an everyday role at the keystone for San Francisco when he's activated from the injured list.

San Francisco Giants second baseman Thairo Estrada (wrist) was scheduled to begin his hitting progression before Monday's series opener against the hosting Washington Nationals. Estrada missed nine games with the same sprained left wrist earlier this year, but he struggled to overcome the injury after returning from his first stint on the 10-day injured list on July 9. He went just 3-for-34 (.088) with seven strikeouts in his last 10 contests, causing the Giants to send him back to the IL on July 26. The 28-year-old Venezuelan infielder should be back with San Francisco at some point in August. For the time being, the lefty-hitting Brett Wisely finds himself on the strong side of a platoon for at-bats with Casey Schmitt at the keystone in the Bay Area.

The San Francisco Giants placed infielder Thairo Estrada (wrist) on the 10-day injured list on Friday with a left-wrist sprain and recalled infielder Casey Schmitt from Triple-A Sacramento in a corresponding move. With Estrada on the shelf, Schmitt will start at the keystone and bat eighth on Friday against the visiting Colorado Rockies and left-hander Kyle Freeland. This will be the second time this year that Estrada has landed on the IL with a left-wrist sprain. The 28-year-old infielder has really only been valuable for middle-infield depth in deep-mixed leagues, at best, in 2024. Estrada is currently hitting just .216/.249/.353 with a weak .601 OPS, nine homers and 43 RBI in 87 games played in his fourth year in San Fran. Expect Schmitt to split time at second with Brett Wisely with Estrada on the shelf.

San Francisco Giants second baseman Thairo Estrada (wrist) has been activated from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday. Estrada has been sidelined since late June due to left-wrist tendinitis. He could see an increased look at shortstop with Nick Ahmed being designated for assignment. On Tuesday, Estrada will play second base and bat seventh versus lefty Yusei Kikuchi. Fantasy managers who have Estrada rostered can get him back in their lineups on Tuesday.

San Francisco Giants second baseman Thairo Estrada (wrist, thumb) began a hitting program prior to Thursday's series finale against the hosting Atlanta Braves, and he will continue his progression during this weekend's series in Cleveland against the Guardians. Estrada is recovering from discomfort in his left wrist and thumb, but if he doesn't need a brief minor-league rehab assignment before returning to the Giants' infield, he'll be a candidate to be activated from the 10-day injured list promptly following the Midsummer Classic in mid-July. The 28-year-old Venezuelan infielder was batting just .231 (68-for-295) with a .640 OPS, nine home runs, 39 RBI, and one stolen base while regularly hitting in the lower part of San Fran's lineup in 77 games prior to the injuries, so he's not necessarily a must-stash player in shallow fantasy leagues. In the meantime, the lefty-hitting Brett Wisely will serve as the primary second baseman.

The San Francisco Giants placed second baseman Thairo Estrada (wrist, thumb) on the 10-day injured list ahead of Friday's series opener versus the division-rival Los Angeles Dodgers. Estrada has been bothered by left wrist and thumb discomfort recently, signaling for the Giants to suddenly send him to the IL before Friday's contest against the Dodgers. The 28-year-old Venezuelan infielder has been a pretty big disappointment from a fantasy perspective in 2024, batting .231 (68-for-295) with a .640 OPS, nine home runs, and just one stolen base in 77 games prior to the injuries, so he's not necessarily a must-stash player in shallow settings. The lefty-hitting Brett Wisely figures to take over as San Fran's primary second baseman for now but doesn't sport very much appeal at the moment, and the timing of Estrada's setbacks could make it difficult for him to return before the mid-July All-Star break.

San Francisco Giants second baseman Thairo Estrada is not in Thursday's lineup as the Giants open a three-game set against the St. Louis Cardinals at Rickwood Field in Birmingham, Alabama. Estrada has made 14 consecutive starts and will give keystone duties to Brett Wisely this evening. During this stretch, the 28-year-old has struggled with a .211/.250/.316 slash line with just one home run and eight RBI. Through 71 games this season, Estrada has posted a modest .240/.272/.396 line with nine long balls. Wisely will bat in the leadoff spot and has held a strong .299/.321/.442 line through 25 games this season. The 25-year-old infielder is worth a look in DFS this evening as he will face Andre Pallante, who has posted a high 5.56 ERA and 1.59 WHIP in 11 innings this month.

San Francisco Giants second baseman Thairo Estrada hit a three-run, walk-off homer to lift them to a 7-6 win over the Chicago Cubs on Monday. Estrada's homer was his ninth and capped off a night that saw him finish with two hits, four RBI, and a walk in five plate appearances. The home run snapped a string of 20 consecutive games where Estrada had not gone deep. He is slashing .243/.277/.401 with 39 RBI and 37 runs scored. Estrada's versatility as a middle infielder offers some value and remains a solid fantasy option in leagues with 12 or more teams.
