Wade went 2-for-4 with a home run, a triple, a walk and two total RBI in Wednesday's 7-3 victory versus St. Louis.

Wade was originally out of the lineup Wednesday, but he was added as the Giants' starting right fielder when Mike Yastrzemski was scratched due to a left side injury. Wade took advantage of the opportunity, hitting a solo homer to center in the fourth inning and producing a run-scoring triple in the eighth. He's hitting just .237 this season, but six of his 14 hits have gone for extra bases.

Flores went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 7-3 win against the Cardinals.

Flores went deep in the seventh inning, swatting a two-run shot to give the Giants a 6-2 lead. The veteran infielder is up to four homers on the season, putting him on pace to reach 20 homers in a campaign for the first time in his career. Flores has complemented the moderate power with a .278/.316/.486 slash line and nine RBI across 76 plate appearances.

Olson went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 6-4 win over the Marlins.

Olson had a rollercoaster evening Wednesday, striking out three times in the win but hitting a solo homer to open the top of the eighth to bring Atlanta to within one. He sparked the offense, as the team rallied around his long ball to put up four total runs in the inning and claim the lead. Olson has hit seven home runs this season with 21 RBI and 19 runs scored over 25 games. Wednesday's homer was the slugger's first since April 18.

Wade will start in right field Wednesday against St. Louis and bat sixth, Sonja Chen of MLB.com reports.

With Mike Yastrzemski scratched from the lineup due to a tight left side, Wade will face the left-handed Steven Matz on Wednesday. Wade holds just a .355 OPS against southpaws across 88 plate appearances since 2021.

Wade isn't starting against the Cardinals on Wednesday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

As the Cardinals prepare to begin the game with southpaw Steven Matz on the mound, the left-handed Wade will retreat to the bench for Wednesday's contest. Wilmer Flores will take Wade's place at first base and bat seventh.

Noda is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels.

Noda is out against southpaw Patrick Sandoval and the Angels on Wednesday. Jesus Aguilar is starting at first base with Shea Langeliers operating as the designated hitter.

Naylor went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 4-1 victory over the Rockies.

After German Marquez walked Jose Ramirez with two outs, Naylor hit a two-run blast in the first inning to give the Guardians an early lead. He hit the ball hard in his second plate appearance, but Kris Bryant flagged it down on a nice play in right field. Naylor singled his third time up, giving him five multi-hit games this season, but he struck out with the bases loaded in the seventh. He continues to split time between first base and designated hitter and is starting to heat up again, with hits in four of his last five starts, after managing just one hit and five walks over his previous 39 plate appearances.

Abreu went 1-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a run scored Tuesday against the Rays.

Abreu tallied an RBI double and came around to score in the fifth inning of Tuesday's win. He now has at least one hit in seven of his last eight starts, which has resulted in a .273 average. Even with that positive production, he has only two extra-base hits in that span and four total on the campaign across 105 plate appearances. Overall, Abreu has maintained a 60 wRC+ and .256 wOBA.

Gurriel went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and and a stolen base in Tuesday's loss against the Braves.

Gurriel swiped his first bag of the 2023 season Tuesday, taking second base after hitting a single in the second frame. The first baseman also came through in crunch time, clubbing a solo home run in the top of the ninth that brought the Marlins to within three, but they were unable to build momentum and mount a comeback. Though Gurriel is used primarily as a bench option for Miami, he's worth a look in daily formats when in the starting lineup against left-handed pitching, considering his minuscule 9.1 percent strikeout rate in that split.

Lowe went 2-for-5 with a double, a home run and an additional run scored in Tuesday's loss to the Reds.

Lowe opened the scoring with a solo home run off Luke Weaver in the first inning. He'd add a double to lead off the fourth. The multi-hit game snaps a stretch of seven contests without an extra-base hit for Lowe. The 27-year-old first baseman is slashing .253/.308/.432 with three home runs and 16 RBI through 104 plate appearances this season following a breakout 2022 campaign.
