Impact The back issue surfaced Saturday after Lee apparently slept wrong, and he'll need a few days to get back to full strength. It's not believed to be a serious issue, so the 26-year-old could still be ready to go for Opening Day on March 27.

Bats third in spring training Lee went 1-for-3 in San Francisco's spring training opener Saturday.

Impact Lee served as the Giants' leadoff hitter in 2024 prior to suffering a season-ending labrum tear in his left shoulder in May, but manager Bob Melvin said prior to spring training that the 26-year-old could be moved to the three spot for 2025, per Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle. Lee operated out of the three hole in Saturday's game while LaMonte Wade shifted to the top of the batting order, and Melvin will likely tinker with the lineup throughout spring training. Lee appeared in 37 regular-season games in 2024 prior to his injury and slashed .262/.310/.331 with two stolen bases, two home runs and eight RBI across 158 plate appearances.

Could bat third at times Giants manager Bob Melvin said Thursday that Lee might bat third at times this season, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact Lee was the Giants' primary leadoff hitter when healthy last season and is slated to see most of his action at the top of the batting order again in 2025. However, he did slide down to the three hole on five occasions in 2024 when the opposition had a lefty on the mound, and it sounds like that could happen at times again this season. LaMonte Wade is a candidate to hit leadoff on the days Lee bats third.

Full participant to begin camp Giants manager Bob Melvin confirmed Wednesday that Lee (shoulder) will be a full participant to begin spring training, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Impact Melvin previously said in December that he didn't expect Lee to face any restrictions during camp, and that prediction has come to pass with the outfielder experiencing no complications over the winter while completing his recovery from the labrum surgery he underwent in June. Before getting hurt last season, Lee led off in his 31 of his 36 starts, and he projects to serve as the Giants' primary table setter to begin the 2025 campaign if he makes it through the spring unscathed.

No restrictions in spring training Giants manager Bob Melvin said Monday that Lee (shoulder) will have no restrictions at the start of spring training, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact Lee is right at the end of a six-month timetable that was provided following surgery in June to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder. It's not clear what kind of workouts Lee is able to do currently, but it would appear there are no concerns about his readiness for the beginning of camp and Opening Day. The 26-year-old slashed .262/.310/.331 with two home runs and two stolen bases in his first 37 games for the Giants before going under the knife. He's projected to be the Giants' center fielder and likely leadoff man next season.
