Miller (elbow) is optimistic about returning from the 15-day injured list in five weeks, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Miller was placed on the 15-day injured list Saturday due to a left elbow sprain, and while the initial five-week timeline may be a bit ambitious, Miller isn't worried about bouncing back from the injury, per Rubin. The southpaw was in the midst of putting together a strong 2025 campaign, posting a 1.50 ERA and 1.47 WHIP with 22 strikeouts across 30.0 innings prior to landing on the shelf.

Giants' Luis Matos: Drives in two on Sunday
Rotowire
Matos went 1-for-5 with a two-RBI double in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Athletics.
Matos cracked a ground-rule double to right-center field in the fifth inning, driving in two runs and giving the club a 5-1 lead. The 23-year-old outfielder has now recorded three doubles in his last four games. Since being recalled from Triple-A Sacramento, Matos is slashing .231/.286/.462 with three doubles, two RBI and one run scored across 14 plate appearances. He has started each of the two games against a lefty but has only started one of four games against righties since his most recent promotion.
Fitzgerald went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Athletics.
Fitzgerald gave the Giants a little more breathing room with his eighth-inning homer. He's gone just 4-for-20 (.200) over six games since he was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento, though he has two doubles and a homer in that span. Overall, he's at a .227/.287/.333 slash line with three homers, 13 RBI, 18 runs scored, nine stolen bases, 10 doubles and one triple over 63 games. Fitzgerald is still seeing a starting role at second base, but with Matt Chapman back from the injured list, Brett Wisely could be in contention for more time at second base until Casey Schmitt (hand) is ready to return as well.

Giants' Willy Adames: Homer, three RBI in win
Rotowire
Adames went 1-for-3 with a home run, two walks and three RBI in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Athletics.
Adames twice drew bases-loaded walks to force in runs. He also had a solo shot in the fourth inning to extend his hitting streak to seven games. During that span, he's gone 11-for-26 (.423) with four extra-base hits, nine RBI and four walks. The shortstop's up to a .226/.313/.370 slash line with 11 homers, 45 RBI, 50 runs scored and four stolen bases through 90 contests this season.

Giants' Hayden Birdsong: Gets away with wildness in win
Rotowire
Birdsong (4-3) allowed one run on three hits and five walks while striking out six over five innings to earn the win Sunday over the Athletics.
Birdsong continues to have trouble with walks, but the Athletics weren't able to punish him for it. This ended a stretch of five starts without a win for the right-hander -- a span in which he had a 7.54 ERA over 22.2 innings. He's at a 4.11 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 68:33 K:BB across 65.2 innings through 20 appearances (nine starts) this season. Birdsong is tentatively projected to make his next start at home versus the Dodgers, who figure to be much more capable of capitalizing if his command is lacking.
Lee is not in the starting lineup Sunday versus the Athletics.
Lee will head to the bench after going 5-for-17 with a triple, a double, two RBI and three runs scored while starting the team's last four games. The outfielder had posted five total hits over his previous 16 games, so his recent stretch has been a positive development. Luis Matos will draw the start in center field and bat sixth in Sunday's series finale with the A's.

Giants' Matt Chapman: Scores twice in return
Rotowire
Chapman went 1-for-3 with two runs scored and a hit-by-pitch in Saturday's 7-2 win over the Athletics.
Chapman returned to game action after being placed on the 10-day injured list June 10 due to a sprained right hand. The veteran third baseman was plunked in the first inning before coming around to score. He singled in the third, leading to another run. Chapman is slashing .245/.365/.451 with 37 runs scored, 30 RBI, 12 home runs and seven stolen bases across 277 plate appearances this season.

Giants' Willy Adames: Drives in four runs
Rotowire
Adames went 3-for-5 with four RBI during Saturday's 7-2 win against the Athletics.
Adames didn't provide any extra-base hits, but he singled with the bases loaded in the first and third innings to provide San Francisco with an early lead. It's the sixth three-hit game of the campaign for the veteran shortstop, who has gone 10-for-23 with two doubles, a homer, six RBI and five runs during a six-game hit streak.
Webb (8-6) picked up the win Saturday against the A's, giving up two runs on seven hits and three walks over 6.2 innings. He struck out six.
It's the eighth straight quality start and 15th of the campaign for Webb, with the latter figure leading MLB. The right-hander already has an impressive big-league resume but is potentially in the midst of a career year with a 2.62 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 133:27 K:BB across 120.1 innings
