Mike Yastrzemski Closing In On Return
9 months agoSan Francisco Giants outfielder Mike Yastrzemski (hamstring) ran the bases and handled a full workout before Friday's contest versus the Texas Rangers. The 32-year-old will next take live batting practice on Saturday, which puts him on track for a return in the imminent future, per Giants manager Gabe Kapler. Yastrzemski has required three separate trips to the injured list this season due to a balky left hamstring strain with the most recent coming on July 31. The lefty-hitter was slashing an icy .132/.270/.283 with just one home run, five RBI, and five runs scored across his prior 21 games (64 plate appearances) since July 4. Fantasy managers might be able to find a better stash on waiver wires since Yaz doesn't tend to play every day, either.
