19 HOURS AGO • Associated Press

Ready to run bases Bader (hamstring) was cleared to resume running the bases Tuesday, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Impact The veteran outfielder was placed on the injured list April 15 due to a hamstring strain, which he initially suffered during spring training but attempted to play through at the start of the regular season. Bader is already eligible to be reinstated from the injured list but will need more time to ramp up his baseball work before being activated.

Placed on IL with hamstring strain The Giants placed Bader on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a left hamstring strain.

Impact Bader first hurt his hamstring late in spring training. While he avoided the IL initially, the injury has continued to linger and likely contributed to his lackluster .115/.145/.192 batting line. Jung Hoo Lee will likely shift over to center field while Bader is out, opening up right field for Jerar Encarnacion, Drew Gilbert and Will Brennan.

Nursing minor hamstring injury Bader has been dealing with a minor left hamstring injury since spring training, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact It helps explain why he's out of the Giants' lineup Tuesday for the second straight game. Bader first tweaked his hamstring less than a week before Opening Day, and it seems the injury is still bothering him. It could at least partly explain the veteran outfielder's lackluster .115/.145/.192 batting line in his first 15 contests this season. At this point, it does not seem the injured list is under consideration for Bader. Jared Oliva is starting in center field and batting ninth Tuesday in Cincinnati in Bader's absence.

Hitting bench amid slump Bader is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact Jung Hoo Lee will slide over from his usual spot in right field to cover center field in place of Bader, who will sit for the second time in four games. Bader's absence from the lineup comes while he's gotten off to a sluggish start at the plate during his first season in San Francisco; he's slashing just .115/.145/.192 with one home run, zero steals, three RBI and four runs across 55 plate appearances.

Sitting Tuesday Bader isn't in the lineup Tuesday versus Philadelphia.

Impact Bader has not hit well to begin 2026 and will get an opportunity to reset on the bench Tuesday. The outfielder has gone hitless in the majority of the games played so far and has yet to have a multi-hit game. Jared Olivia has the start in center field and is batting ninth in Bader's place Tuesday.

Goes yard in win Bader went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 3-2 win over the Padres.

Impact Bader launched a 408-foot shot to left-center field in the third inning, accounting for San Francisco's first home run of the season. The veteran outfielder was 1-for-10 with four strikeouts entering Monday's contest, and he's now slashing .143/.143/.357 across 14 plate appearances. He has recorded a hit in back-to-back games and will look to put a rough opening series behind him.
