Scratched from Friday's lineup Wade (hand) was removed from Friday's lineup against the Nationals, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact Darin Ruf enters the lineup in the five-hole to replace Wade, who took some pregame swings but is being held out as a precaution. He suffered a left hand strain Wednesday, but figures to be back in action in the near future.

Returns to lineup Wade (hand) is batting leadoff and playing first base Friday against the Nationals, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Impact Wade did not play Thursday after exiting Wednesday's contest with a left hand strain, but he appears to be healthy once again entering the weekend series against Washington. He has hit .233 with three home runs and six RBI in his last 30 at-bats dating back to June 26.

Nursing left hand strain Wade's exited Wednesday's game with a left hand strain, Kerry Crowley of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Impact Apparently Wade's foot is fine after being spiked, and he is instead dealing with the hand injury. It's unclear when in the game he suffered the strain, but more details should become available Thursday.

Gets spiked, exits Wednesday Wade left Wednesday's game against the Cardinals with an apparent foot injury after being stepped on at first base, Mark W. Sanchez of KNBR 680 San Francisco reports.

Impact The 27-year-old went 0-for-1 with a pair of walks before being replaced by Darin Ruf at first base. Wade should be considered day-to-day and may be able to play Friday against the Nationals.

Tallies three RBI Friday Wade went 2-for-3 with a two-run homer, a double, a walk and three RBI in Friday's 11-4 win over the Diamondbacks.

Impact Wade got the Giants on the board in the second with a sacrifice fly and only got better as the game went on. He doubled in the fourth and then ripped a two-run blast to right in the eighth, giving the Giants a 7-2 cushion. Wade has been a pleasant addition to the lineup since his June 25 callup, as he's slashing .286/.360/.762 with three homers, six RBI, four runs scored and a 2:4 BB:K over seven games. The 27-year-old should remain a regular fixture in the lineup while the Giants are dealing with injuries to some of their key players.

Two hits, home run Wade went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a strikeout as San Francisco fell 3-2 to the Dodgers on Monday.

Impact Wade singled to lead off the game and homered off Trevor Bauer in the third to get San Francisco on the board. He's now 4-for-10 with two home runs and a walk in four games since being recalled from Triple-A and is making a strong case to remain with the big-league club.

Smashes fifth homer Wade went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run, an additional run and a walk in a 6-5 victory against the A's on Saturday.

Impact Wade blasted a two-run homer to right off A's starter Frankie Montas in the fifth to get San Francisco on the board, walked and scored in the seventh, and singled in the ninth to reach base three times for the fourth time this season. He started for the first time since being recalled from Triple-A on Friday and looks to see decent run with a strong .273/.354/.500 slash line and Brandon Belt on the IL.

Starting at first base Saturday Wade will start at first base and leadoff in Saturday's game against Oakland, Amy Gutierrez of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Wade was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on Friday with Brandon Belt (knee) landing on the injured list. He didn't start Friday against left-hander Sean Manaea but he'll get the nod Saturday against righty Frankie Montas. Wade could be in line to serve as the club's primary first baseman against right-handers until Belt returns, though he also figures to see time in the outfield.

Recalled by San Francisco Wade was recalled by the Giants on Friday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact Wade was sent down by the Giants on Sunday, but he'll return to the major-league club after Brandon Belt (knee) was placed on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. The 27-year-old has appeared in 26 games for San Francisco this year and has slashed .265/.344/.470 with four home runs, 13 runs, 11 RBI and two stolen bases.

Optioned to Triple-A Wade was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Sunday.

Impact Wade had been finding himself in the lineup on a regular basis, starting five straight games in left field. He was hitting well, too, posting a .265/.344/.470 slash line through 94 plate appearances on the year. He'll head to the minors for now, with Alex Dickerson returning from a back injury to take his spot in left field, but he's seemingly earned the chance to return soon whenever the Giants next need another outfielder.

Stuffs stat sheet Wade went 2-for-6 with a solo home run, a stolen base and an additional run scored in Wednesday's 13-7 win over Arizona.

Impact The outfielder has homered four times in the last 14 games, which accounts for all of his long balls this year. Wade is slashing .273/.360/.470 with seven RBI, 10 runs scored and two stolen bases across 76 plate appearances. He's hit well enough to earn playing time in a crowded San Francisco outfield. Wade will likely draw starts against right-handers in one of the corner outfield positions, and he often hits leadoff when in the lineup.

Back on bench Tuesday Wade is not in the starting lineup Tuesday against the Diamondbacks, Mark W. Sanchez of KNBR 680 San Francisco reports.

Impact Wade is unlikely to see many starts against southpaws, so his absence from Tuesday's lineup comes as no surprise with San Francisco facing lefty Alex Young. Wade should continue to see semi-consistent starts against righties, though Mike Yastrzemski's recent return from the injured list could lead to less at-bats for Wade going forward.

JUNE 15, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Sits Sunday Wade is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.

Impact For the first time since June 1, Wade will head to the bench, ending a streak of nine consecutive starts. With the Giants bringing Mike Yastrzemski back from the 10-day injured list Saturday, Wade's path to an everyday role in the San Francisco outfield could become more blocked. Wade and Steven Duggar will likely be competing for one spot in the Giants' regular outfield alongside Yastrzemski and Mike Tauchman.
