Wilmer Flores - Page 3 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Taking seat Wednesday Flores is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against Atlanta, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact The left-handed-hitting Dominic Smith will get the nod at first base while the Giants take on Atlanta righty Spencer Strider, but the right-handed-hitting Flores started over Smith in the first two contest of the series, when the Giants also faced a pair of right-handed starters. Flores holds an edge in OPS so far in July (.661) over Smith (.597), so the former could still see a fair amount of playing time versus righties even though the latter holds the platoon advantage.

Since the start of June, Flores is slashing .233/.321/.328 with two big flies, five doubles, 13 RBI and 11 runs scored covering 134 plate appearances.

Rafaela hits a tiebreaking homer and Red Sox keep Devers hitless in a 7-5 win over the Giants

Ceddanne Rafaela had three hits and a tiebreaking homer, leading the Boston Red Sox to a 7-5 victory over their former star slugger Rafael Devers and the San Francisco Giants

Plays hero Thursday Flores went 1-for-1 with a two-RBI double during Thursday's 2-1 win over the Guardians.

Impact Flores pinch hit in the seventh inning and doubled on a groundball to left field, driving in both of San Francisco's runs with what proved to be the game-winning hit. The 33-year-old has been left out of the starting lineup in two of the club's last three games following Rafael Devers' arrival. However, Devers is expected to eventually see time at first base, which will likely lead to Flores getting more opportunities at designated hitter. Over 16 outings in June, Flores is slashing .269/.371/.385 with seven RBI, seven runs scored, three doubles and one home run across 62 plate appearances.

Left out of lineup in Devers' debut Flores is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Guardians.

Impact With a .256 average, 11 home runs, 51 RBI and 31 runs over 70 games, Flores has been an excellent value for those that selected him late in drafts or scooped him off the waiver wire early on in the season, but his fantasy utility looks as though it could take a major hit after the Giants acquired Rafael Devers from the Red Sox on Sunday. Prior to Tuesday's contest, manager Bob Melvin made no mention of Devers being an option at third base while Matt Chapman (hand) is on the injured list, with the skipper noting that Devers will instead be used at designated hitter and eventually first base, per Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic. Flores' days as a third baseman also appear to be over at this point, and since Devers will be guaranteed an everyday spot in the lineup at DH until the Giants are comfortable having him play defense, Flores looks like he'll be vying with Dominic Smith for playing time at first base. Smith (.919 OPS) has gotten off to a nice start since signing with the Giants earlier this month and bats from the left side, so the right-handed-hitting Flores may end up having to settle for a short-side platoon role. Flores will be on the bench Tuesday while the Guardians send righty Slade Cecconi to the bump.
