That cannot be farther from the truth, however. All of these gritty groups have remained firmly in the fight. The San Francisco Giants are one such “scrapper” who appear to be <a href="https://twitter.com/EvanWebeck/status/1702448849439039929?s=20" rel="noopener">getting back the firepower</a> they might need to emerge from this crowded pack.</p><p>“Gabe Kapler said {he} had Michael Conforto in today’s lineup as the DH before it was rained out,” Evan Webeck of Mercury News and the East Bay Times reported Tuesday. “So likelihood is he’s activated tomorrow (Friday). He declined to share what the corresponding roster move would be. Logan Webb will start Friday, and after that it’s TBD.”</p><p>That is good news for Giants fans. Conforto has been sidelined with a hamstring injury since Aug. 25, in which time the club has gone on quite the see-saw ride. San Fran lost some ground in the postseason race after losing six-straight games to start September. Since then, though, Kapler’s squad has won five of its last six.</p><p>Although Conforto has a modest .251/.343/.405 slash line in 111 games this season, he can add some pop to a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/giants-news-joc-pederson-gets-brutally-honest-on-struggles-amid-san-franciscos-playoff-push" rel="noopener">Giants lineup</a> that ranks in the bottom half of the MLB in most offensive categories. The 2017 NL All-Star has 15 home runs, which, believe it or not, is the third most on the team.</p><p>Unfortunately, the weather has forced fans to wait just a bit longer for his return. But it has been a highly successful day off all the same, with the Cincinnati Reds, Arizona Diamondbacks and Miami Marlins all losing on Thursday. The Giants (75-71) now sit in a tie for the third Wild Card position.</p><p>We will see if Michael Conforto can be the extra spark this team needs for the final stretch of the regular season. A weekend series at the Colorado Rockies’ Coors Field will give him every opportunity to hit the ground running.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

As a result, the Giants put the veteran outfielder to the 10-day injured list. This means Conforto will be absent in their series <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/braves-vs-giants-prediction-odds-pick-how-to-watch-8-25-2023" rel="noopener">against the Atlanta Braves</a>, Cincinnati Reds and San Diego Padres, at the least.</p><p>In a related move, San Francisco recalled Heliot Ramos from Triple-A Sacramento River Cats. Ramos was sent to the minors Tuesday, but his trip there was brief as the Giants needed someone to fill the hole that Conforto leaves in the outfield.</p><p>Sure enough, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/giants-news-san-francisco-michael-conforto-injury-update" rel="noopener">losing Michael Conforto</a> to injury is quite the brutal blow to a San Francisco team looking to make the postseason. At 66-61 entering Friday’s game against the Braves, they are still in the hunt for a Wild Card spot in the National League.</p><p>However, what is already a difficult task just got harder with the absence of a key contributor in Conforto. The 30-year-old is slashing .251/.343/.405 for the team before his untimely exit. He has also recorded 15 home runs, 55 RBI and four stolen bases in the 111 games he has played so far with San Francisco.</p><p>Hopefully Ramos will be able to fill in nicely for Conforto as he recovers from his hamstring injury. The good news is Conforto’s health issue doesn’t seem to be serious, though it’s hard to guarantee anything until he makes his return.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Apart from suffering a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/pirates-vs-giants-prediction-odds-pick-how-to-watch-5-30-2023" rel="noopener">2-1 loss</a> to the Pittsburgh Pirates, the Giants also saw outfielder Michael Conforto suffer a lower-body injury. Following the game, Giants manager Gabe Kapler shared an update on Conforto, who might need a day or two before getting back to action, with Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reporting that the team’s offseason acquisition is considered day-to-day.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Gabe Kapler said Michael Conforto is day to day with a bruised left heel.</p><p>— Maria I. Guardado (@mi_guardado) <a href="https://twitter.com/mi_guardado/status/1663768058920599552?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 31, 2023</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Michael Conforto went 2-for-4 against the Pirates and was responsible for the Giants’ only run of the contest when he drove Mike Yastrzemski to home with a single in the bottom of the first. Conforto’s injury comes just when the 30-year-old veteran is finding his groove at the plate. Over his last 12 games, Michael Conforto has hit <a href="https://www.mlb.com/stats/san-francisco-giants" rel="noopener">.370</a> to go with a .404 OBP and .587 slugging. Over that same span, he also recorded three home runs and 11 RBI.</p><p>Conforto, who missed the entire 2022 MLB season due to injury, still has the door open for a chance to play in the series finale against the Pirates Wednesday night. If anything, it does not seem that his injury would warrant a trip to the injured list. If he gets ruled out for Wednesday’s contest, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/giants-3-players-fans-are-already-fed-up-with-in-2023" rel="noopener">Michael Conforto could be back</a> as soon as Friday when the Giants open a three-game series at home versus the Baltimore Orioles.</p><p>With their loss to the Pirates, the Giants are now hovering just above .500 with a 28-27 record — 5.5 games behind the National League West division-leading Los Angeles Dodgers and four games back of the Arizona Diamondbacks for the second spot in the division.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
