Giants' Mike Yastrzemski: Three hits in win
Rotowire
Yastrzemski went 3-for-5 with a run scored in Thursday's 7-2 win over the Diamondbacks.
Yastrzemski has been atop the lineup for all three games in July, going 5-for-14 in that short span. It's part of a larger five-game hitting streak for the outfielder. Yastrzemski moved around the lineup at times in late June, batting as low as sixth, but he's batted leadoff more than anywhere else.

While he has an 11.9 percent walk rate and 22.5 percent strikeout rate overall, he's seen an uptick in strikeouts with 16 over his last 13 games.

Giants' Mike Yastrzemski: Three hits in Tuesday's loss
Rotowire
Yastrzemski went 3-for-4 with a double in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Guardians.
Yastrzemski is on a hot streak, having hit safely in seven straight games. In that span, he has gone 11-for-22 (.500) with four doubles and seven RBI. The outfielder should have more stable playing time while Jerar Encarnacion (oblique) is on the injured list -- the two had been platooning in right field, but Encarnacion's injury leaves just one right-handed-hitting full-time outfielder (Heliot Ramos) on the Giants' roster. Yastrzemski is slashing just .170/.214/.264 against southpaws this season, so it's still possible the Giants will eventually change the composition of their outfield to give him a platoon partner. Overall, he's batting .257 with a .748 OPS, five home runs, 13 doubles, one triple, 24 RBI, 28 runs scored and five stolen bases over 252 plate appearances.

This was Yastrzemski's second three-hit effort in the last three games. The outfielder also has three steals in that span and is up to five thefts on the year, matching his career high from 2022.

He's slashing .284/.385/.463 with five home runs, 17 RBI, 21 runs scored and nine doubles across 38 contests.
