Not starting Saturday Slater is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Marlins, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

On bench Tuesday Slater is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Reds, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Impact Slater started the first seven games of the season but has now been on the bench for three of the last four. His previous two off days were reportedly related to foot discomfort, though he returned to the lineup Monday. It's unclear if the issue is still bothering him.
APRIL 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Returns to lineup Slater (foot) is starting Monday against the Reds, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Impact Slater had missed the past two games due to foot discomfort, but he'll start in right field and lead off for Monday's series opener against the Reds. Slater has gone 4-for-26 with a home run, one stolen base and 11 strikeouts to begin the year.
APRIL 12, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Managing foot discomfort Slater has been out of the lineup for the past two games due to foot discomfort, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Slater hit a ball off his foot several days ago and was unavailable off the bench Saturday. Manager Gabe Kapler revealed that Slater was available to pinch hit if needed Sunday, so he appears to be trending in the right direction. However, it's not yet clear whether Slater will be able to return to the lineup for Monday's series opener against Cincinnati.
APRIL 11, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Sitting again Sunday Slater is not in the lineup Sunday against Colorado, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Impact The 28-year-old started the first seven games of the season, but he now finds himself on the bench for the second straight game. LaMonte Wade was recalled from alternate training site and will start in center field in Slater's place Sunday.
APRIL 11, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Gets breather Saturday Slater isn't starting Saturday's game against the Rockies, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Impact Slater had started each of the first seven games for the Giants this year and went 4-for-26 with a solo home run, four walks and 11 strikeouts. Mauricio Dubon will take over in center field Saturday, batting eighth.

Worry rankings: Which struggling Giants hitters should you be concerned about? It's too early to freak out about the small-sample size struggles of Brandon Belt, Austin Slater and others. Or is it?
APRIL 8, 2021 • THEATHLETIC.COM
Steals base in extra-inning win Slater went 0-for-3 with two walks and a stolen base in Wednesday's 3-2 extra-inning win over the Padres.
Impact One of Slater's walks came in the third inning, and he added his first steal of the year soon after. The 28-year-old outfielder is seeing an everyday role -- he's slashing .174/.269/.304 with a homer, one RBI, one run scored and a stolen base. Expect him to hit near the top of the order versus southpaws, while he'll typically shift to the bottom third of the lineup against right-handed pitchers.
APRIL 8, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Settling into everyday role Slater will start in center field and bat leadoff Wednesday against the Padres, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact With southpaw Blake Snell on the hill for San Diego, Slater will once again get a turn in the table-setting role, as has been the case in the Giants' previous three games this season in which they've opposed left-handed starting pitchers. Slater has also been featured in the starting nine in both of the Giants' games to date against right-handed pitchers, albeit while batting in a bottom-third spot in the order. The 28-year-old thus appears to have at least temporarily captured a full-time role in the outfield, with Mauricio Dubon losing out on some reps as a result.
APRIL 7, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Knocks homer Thursday Slater went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Thursday's 8-7 extra-inning loss to the Mariners.
Impact Slater batted leadoff for the Giants. His homer came in the fifth inning, extending the Giants' lead to 5-0 at the time. The 28-year-old outfielder is expected to see the short side of a platoon in left field this season -- Alex Dickerson pinch hit for Slater in the ninth inning. Slater provides a bit of speed, as he went 8-for-9 in stolen bases in 2020 while slashing .282/.408/.506 across 104 plate appearances. He added five homers, 18 runs scored and seven RBI.

APRIL 2, 2021 • Associated Press
Starting against left-hander Slater is starting Thursday's game against the Mariners, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
Impact Slater will enter the Giants' Opening Day lineup as the leadoff hitter with left-hander Marco Gonzales starting for Seattle. Alex Dickerson will retreat to the bench while Slater starts in left field. However, Dickerson is expected to serve on the strong side of a platoon in left field this year.
APRIL 1, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Likely platoon LF role Slater appears set to platoon in left field with Alex Dickerson, the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Slater is having a strong spring by hitting .409 (9-for-22) with four home runs and two stolen bases. Slater could get starts in the first two games against Seattle with the Mariners likely to start lefties Marco Gonzales and James Paxton. Slater looks to build on his 2021 season where he hit .282/.408/.506 with five homers and eight steals in 31 games.

Starting Saturday Slater (hamstring) is starting Saturday's spring game against Cleveland, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
Impact Slater missed time earlier this spring due to hamstring tightness, but he'll lead off and play right field Saturday. It's not yet clear whether his absence will affect his availability for Opening Day.
MARCH 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Could play Friday Slater (hamstring) could get an at-bat and play the field during Friday's spring game against the Rockies, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Slater hasn't played since Feb. 28 due to hamstring tightness that he dealt with after the spring opener. However, the 28-year-old could return to the field Friday with just under three weeks remaining before Opening Day. Slater should serve as a primary backup in the outfield if he's fully healthy to begin the season.

Dealing with hamstring tightness Slater is dealing with hamstring tightness following Sunday's loss to the Angels, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Slater entered spring training with a minor elbow flexor strain, but he experienced a tight hamstring during Sunday's spring opener and had only one at-bat as a result. It's not yet clear whether Slater will miss time as a result of the injury.
FEBRUARY 28, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Serving as designated hitter Slater (elbow) will bat sixth as the designated hitter in the Giants' spring debut against the Angels on Sunday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Impact Slater dealt with an elbow flexor strain over the offseason and received a platelet-rich plasma injection. He said himself that he feels pretty much 100 percent, and the fact that he's already able to hit seems to back that up. It would be nice to see him take the field soon to confirm that he's fully healthy, but he still has over a month to go before the regular season begins to clear that hurdle.
FEBRUARY 27, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Giants need expanded playoffs; union rep Austin Slater says it's a no go for now Austin Slater's elbow injury required a platelet rich plasma injection this offseason, but he's throwing without restriction now.
