When will Matt Chapman return to the Giants lineup?

Published:

By: Stan Son

On June 8th, Matt Chapman injured his hand while diving back on a pickoff attempt. He was initially placed on the 10-day injured list then missed the rest of the month. Chapman has been taking batting practice and will play a rehab game with the River Cats in Reno on Friday. Chapman is expected to return to the Giants lineup on Saturday.

The Giants offense scuffled in June, so Chapman’s return will inject some much needed offensive juice.

In 272 plate appearances, Chapman hit 12 home runs, scored 35 runs, drove in 30 and stole seven bases. The walk rate was 14.7%, strikeout rate was 23.9% and ISO was .209.

Stan joined DraftKings in December of 2020. It was a glorious time, except for that whole COVID thing, when we got Madden streams and boisterous bat flips from the KBO. I was brought on board to bring some West Coast flavor. I especially love hoops, and most of my content is in that arena. When I walk along the beach, strumming my guitar, the beat that I hear is not one of crashing waves. No, it is the beat of the ball bouncing off the hardwood with highs provided by the squeaks of the sneakers. Ball is life.
