Giants' Grant McCray: Optioned to Triple-A
The Giants optioned McCray to Triple-A Sacramento on Thursday.
McCray is just 2-for-20 with 10 strikeouts for the Giants this season and hadn't been playing much. His roster spot will be taken by Luis Matos.

Giants' Grant McCray: Losing starts to Gilbert
McCray is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.
McCray enjoyed a brief run as a strong-side platoon player after being recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on Aug. 1, but he appears to have moved into a bench role. Drew Gilbert will get a third straight start Sunday and has seemingly taken over as the Giants' primary right fielder.

Giants' Grant McCray: Hitting bench Wednesday
McCray is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pirates, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
After making three straight starts against right-handed pitching, the left-handed-hitting McCray took a seat in Tuesday's 8-1 win while the Pirates sent righty Mike Burrows to the hill. Jerar Encarnacion started in right field in McCray's stead and went 1-for-5 with a solo home run, and will now stick in the lineup for a second straight contest while southpaw Andrew Heaney takes the mound for Pittsburgh. McCray has gone just 2-for-13 with eight strikeouts since getting called up from Triple-A Sacramento, so it wouldn't be surprising if he lost hold of a strong-side platoon role and ceded regular duties in right field to Encarnacion.

Giants' Grant McCray: Getting regular starts vs. RHPs
McCray will start in right field and bat ninth in Monday's game against the Pirates, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
The left-handed-hitting McCray will be awarded a third straight start -- all against right-handed pitching -- after he went 2-for-9 with a triple, an RBI and a run in the Giants' three-game series versus the Mets over the weekend. After trading Mike Yastrzemski to the Royals on Thursday, the Giants appear to be giving McCray a look as a strong-side platoon player in right field, but McCray will likely need to raise his performance in his subsequent starts in order to hold off Jerar Encarnacion for playing time versus righties.

Giants' Grant McCray: Called up by San Francisco
The Giants recalled McCray from Triple-A Sacramento on Friday.
McCray has spent the entire 2025 season in Triple-A, where he is slashing .260/.338/.429 with 26 steals, five triples, 14 home runs and 63 RBI in 468 plate appearances. He appeared in 37 regular-season games for the Giants in 2024 and finished with a .617 OPS with five steals, five homers and 10 RBI in 130 plate appearances. McCray should see some starts in the outfield after the Giants traded Mike Yastrzemski to the Royals on Thursday and with Jerar Encarnacion (oblique) still on the 10-day IL.

Giants' Grant McCray: Falls short of roster spot
The Giants optioned McCray to Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday.
McCray had a shot to be the team's Opening Day center fielder if Jung Hoo Lee (back) wasn't ready, but Lee is healthy now, and McCray will begin the year in the minors. He collected a .617 OPS across 37 contests for the Giants last season.

Giants' Grant McCray: Could start season in center field
The Giants will likely turn to McCray if Jung Hoo Lee (back) begins the season on the injured list, Maria Guardado of MLB.com reports.
The club is expected to work Lee back into the lineup before Opening Day, but McCray could step into center field if Lee misses time in the regular season. McCray is hitting .275 with one home run, four RBI and a team-best four steals in 22 Cactus League games. The 24-year-old has been focusing on making consistent contact this spring after striking out in 56 of his 130 plate appearances last season. "I can't say I expected him to be in the big leagues last year, and then he had a stretch where he was really good," manager Bob Melvin said earlier this spring. "Hitting homers, playing great defense, making good throws. And then the strikeouts kind of accumulated a little bit. He knows. That's what he's working on this spring."

Giants' Grant McCray: Clubs two homers in win
McCray went 2-for-4 with two home runs and five RBI in Saturday's win over the Padres.
McCray gave San Francisco the lead with a three-run blast off Dylan Cease in the top of the second and later added a second long ball to increase the lead to three runs. It marked the rookie outfielder's first multi-homer game of his big-league career, and he's now recorded multiple hits in back-to-back contests. His five RBI on the night also marked a career high, and he's now batting .313 (5-for-16) in September with three extra-base hits, five RBI and two runs scored. Furthermore, McCray has cut down on his strikeouts to open this month, striking out only four times through five games thus far after going down on strikes twice in four consecutive games to wrap up the month of August.

Giants' Grant McCray: Crushes second homer
McCray went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk Sunday against the Mariners.
McCray's eighth-inning blast was his second of the season and pulled the Giants to within one. The rookie center fielder has shown some pop in his short stint in the majors, posting a .306 average through his first 36 at-bats, with five of those 11 hits going for extra bases.

Giants' Grant McCray: Handling full-time role
McCray will start in center field and bat ninth in Wednesday's game against the White Sox, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
The lefty-hitting McCray has now started in each of the Giants' seven games following his call-up from Triple-A Sacramento last Wednesday, including three matchups with left-handed pitchers. McCray has batted .273 with three extra-base hits (one home run, two doubles) over his first six starts, but a 43.5 percent strikeout rate suggests rougher times could be ahead for the rookie once his .455 BABIP normalizes.

Giants' Grant McCray: Belts first big-league homer
McCray went 2-for-3 with a home run, an additional RBI and a walk in a 6-0 victory versus Atlanta on Thursday.
McCray plated San Francisco's first run on a bunt single in the second inning. His second RBI of the contest came in an entirely different fashion, as he smashed a 404-foot solo shot to center field in the sixth frame. Thursday marked just the second game of McCray's career -- he went 0-for-4 in his MLB debut Wednesday. He hit as many 23 homers in a season in the minors (in 2022), and McCray also has plenty of speed, as he swiped 53 bags in High-A ball in 2023. That's a tantalizing combination from a fantasy perspective, though managers keeping an eye on him should note that he's also struggled to make contact throughout his time as a pro.
