LaMonte Wade Jr.’s hamstring injury leads to heavy back of the roster churn

I step away from the computer for an hour and all heck breaks loose... at least at the back of the roster. This afternoon, the San Francisco Giants announced a series of roster moves to address yesterday’s unfortunate hamstring injury sustained by LaMonte Wade Jr. along with their pitching’s unfortunate... not-as-good-as-planned-for-ness.

#SFGiants roster moves:

• IF LaMonte Wade Jr. placed on the 10-day IL
• OF Ryan McKenna and LHP Drew Pomeranz designated for assignment
• RHP Spencer Howard and IF Trenton Brooks selected from Triple-A Sacramento
• OF/IF Tyler Fitzgerald recalled from Triple-A Sacramento— SFGiants (@SFGiants) May 28, 2024

Let’s take a look from the bottom up:

Added to the roster

Tyler Fitzgerald

The Giants set him down for a very good reason: with the additions of Luis Matos, Heliot Ramos, and Marco Luciano, they’d suddenly gotten very right-handed.
