Giants put Matt Chapman on 10-day injury list

The Giants ranked third baseman before losing to the Rays 7-6 on Friday Matt Chapman On the 10-day injury list, it is traced back to August 13. Ryan Walker Also on the parent-child roster, the Giants solved the two open lineups by calling their right hand Keaton Winn From Triple A, right-activated Landen Roupp Start with 15 days of IL.

Chapman dealt with inflammation with his right hand and shot Cortisone’s shot to try to come back in very little time. Even then, as he told Slusser and other journalists on Friday, his hands may have to wait until offseason to fully recover. It all stemmed from the initial hand injury, which in June and early July, when Chapman suffered a sprain and bone abrasion on his right hand, jumped to third base in pain with three fingers.

Even after returning from the first IL, Chapman still played a role in discomfort, making him “Try to work hard and do my best. “In recent days, Chapman’s hand has become painful enough,” things have reached a breakthrough pointI really feel like I can’t use my hands when I sway and it feels something is wrong. ”

These figures underscore Chapman’s struggles. The Third Baseman reached .243/.360/.452 in his first 272 appearance of the season, but then hit .200/.290/.365 on 131 PA between his two IL positions.

Chapman’s downturn was just a factor in the team-wide offensive shortage over the past month, which led to the Giants’ big glide. San Francisco has been 7-21 in the last 28 games, including a continuous six-game winning streak and an incredible 14 losses in the last 15 home games of the Giants. Even if Chapman does return with minimal time and is able to get back on the plate, it might be too late for the Giants to make a delayed push on the wild card slot.

Casey Schmitt Although Schmitt had to leave Friday’s game after being hit by the court, it was the most likely fill for Chapman. During the post-match media conference, Giants manager Bob Melvin told Slusser and Company that the X-rays are negative, although Schmitt may have to miss a few games to get his right forearm bruises healed. This might say Christian Koss Ranked at third base playing time.
