Giants' Jerar Encarnacion: Posts first steal
Encarnacion went 1-for-3 with a walk, a stolen base and a run scored in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Tigers.
Encarnacion has hit fairly well since joining the Giants' roster, batting .286 over eight games. He's added a 2:8 BB:K, with both walks coming over his last two games. The 26-year-old has seen time in right field and at designated hitter, and he's seemingly passed Marco Luciano on the depth chart despite Luciano's stronger prospect pedigree. Encarnacion shouldn't be relied on for speed, but his power is a plus -- he has a homer and two doubles over 30 plate appearances.

Giants' Ryan Walker: Earns first save as new closer
Walker earned a save in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Tigers, allowing one hit and one walk with two strikeouts in a scoreless ninth inning.
Walker was named the Giants' closer Friday night and immediately found himself in his new role. He put two runners on with one out but responded with two strikeouts to register his first save of the year. The 28-year-old owns an impressive 2.20 ERA, 0.90 WHIP and 73:14 K:BB across 61.1 innings this season and should be rostered in nearly all fantasy formats now that he has the potential for saves.

Giants' Tyler Fitzgerald: Swipes two bags in win
Fitzgerald 1-for-3 with a walk and two stolen bases in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Tigers.
Fitzgerald stole second and third in the seventh inning and has two multi-steal games in his past three contests after swiping just one base in July. The 26-year-old has remained scorching in August, going 13-for-37 with three home runs, five thefts and five multi-hit efforts across nine games. For the year, he is hitting .313 with 12 homers and 12 steals in just 176 plate appearances.

Giants' Logan Webb: Strikes out eight for 10th win
Webb (10-8) earned the win against the Tigers on Saturday, allowing one run on four hits and one walk with eight strikeouts over seven innings.
Webb was dialed in, throwing 78 of 110 pitches for strikes and generating an impressive 17 whiffs. Including a complete-game shutout July 31, the 27-year-old has allowed two earned runs across 21.2 innings during a current three-game win streak. On the year, he owns a 3.32 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 133:40 K:BB across 157 innings and lines up for a matchup with Atlanta next week.

Giants' LaMonte Wade: Resting Saturday
Wade isn't in the Giants' lineup for Saturday's game versus Detroit, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Wade will get a chance to regroup Saturday after going 5-for-24 with a home run since the start of August. While he rests, Mark Canha will get the starting nod at first base and bat sixth.

Giants' Ryan Walker: Taking over as closer
Manager Bob Melvin said Friday that Walker will serve as the Giants' closer going forward, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Walker has been dominant out of the bullpen this season, posting a 2.24 ERA and 0.88 WHIP across 60.1 frames while typically handling the seventh inning for the Giants. With the struggling Camilo Doval now in Triple-A Sacramento, Walker will become San Francisco's go-to reliever in save situations and is worth rostering in all fantasy formats.

Giants' Tyler Rogers: Snags second win
Rogers (2-4) struck out one in a perfect inning to earn the win Friday over the Tigers.
The Giants' bullpen is in flux following the team's shock decision Friday to option Camilo Doval to the minors. Rogers wasn't asked to handle a save situation Friday, but he pitched the ninth inning in a tied game, which is another common situation for closers to handle. That may have been a product of Ryan Walker pitching on four of the previous five days, as it's likely to be Walker who sees the bulk of the ninth-inning duties while Rogers -- who has often struggled in save situations in his career -- remains in a setup role. For the season, Rogers has a 3.04 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 38:3 K:BB with 25 holds and one save in two chances. Jordan Hicks and Taylor Rogers are also in the high-leverage mix, and the former's prior closing experience could make him a dark-horse candidate for saves.

Giants' Robbie Ray: Decent in no-decision
Ray allowed two runs on five hits and three walks while striking out seven over six innings in a no-decision versus the Tigers on Friday.
Ray delivered his longest outing of the season and earned his first quality start, though it wasn't exactly a dominating performance. He threw 66 of 105 pitches for strikes and avoided giving up a home run for the first time since his season debut July 24. Ray is now at a 3.98 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 28:9 K:BB over 20.1 innings through four starts. He's projected for a tougher home outing versus Atlanta next week.

Giants' Ryan Watson: Traded to San Francisco
The Orioles traded Watson to the Giants on Friday in exchange for cash, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
Watson has posted a 2.38 ERA and 0.97 WHIP through 22.2 total innings between the Orioles' Double-A and Triple-A affiliates this season. The 26-year-old righty will now likely report to Triple-A Sacramento upon joining his new organization, and he could be promoted to make his MLB debut later this season if he continues to impress in the minors.

Giants' Jerar Encarnacion: Sitting Friday
Encarnacion is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Tigers, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
Encarnacion started in each of the Giants' last five games, going 6-for-20 with three RBI. Mark Canha will serve as the designated hitter Friday and bat seventh.

Giants' Patrick Bailey: Taking seat Friday
Bailey is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Tigers, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
Bailey will yield to Curt Casali, who was activated off the injured list Friday, behind the dish for the series opener against Detroit. Bailey is in the middle of a slump, having one hit and nine strikeouts in his last 30 at-bats.

Giants' Curt Casali: Back with team
The Giants reinstated Casali from the paternity list Friday, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
After staying at home during the Giants' three-game road series against the Nationals, Casali has rejoined the team in time for Friday's series opener against the Tigers. Jakson Reetz was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento in a corresponding move.

Giants' Camilo Doval: Optioned to Triple-A
The Giants optioned Doval to Triple-A Sacramento on Friday, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
The decision to send Doval to the minors comes after he gave up three earned runs in one inning and was charged with his fifth blown save Thursday. The 27-year-old righty will attempt to get back on track with Sacramento after recording a 6.75 ERA and 1.83 WHIP through 21.1 innings since June 2. Ryan Walker and Tyler Rogers are likely the favorites to pitch in save situations for the Giants, and Landen Roupp will come up from Triple-A to replenish San Francisco's bullpen depth.

Giants' Jakson Reetz: Optioned to Sacramento
The Giants optioned Reetz to Triple-A Sacramento on Friday.
The move makes room for the reinstatement of catcher Curt Casali from the paternity list. Reetz was called up from Sacramento on Tuesday. In his lone outing Thursday against the Nationals, Reetz went 1-for-2 with one double and one walk. In the minors this season, he's slashing .250/.362/.428 with five home runs and 31 RBI across 214 plate appearances.

Giants' Landen Roupp: Called up by Giants
The Giants recalled Roupp from Triple-A Sacramento on Friday, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
Roupp will take Camilo Doval's spot on the active roster, marking Roupp's first MLB action since June 30. In 16.1 big-league innings, Roupp has logged a 6.06 ERA and a 1.65 WHIP with a 15:10 K:BB.

Giants' Ismael Munguia: Returns from injury
Munguia (undisclosed) is slashing .278/.395/.333 with two doubles, a 4:3 BB:K and four stolen bases in nine games since returning from Double-A Richmond's 7-day injured list July 24.
Munguia missed a little over two weeks with the undisclosed injury before returning to the Richmond lineup. The 25-year-old outfielder is getting on base at a .372 clip while going 15-for-21 on stolen-base attempts over his 286 plate appearances between Richmond and Triple-A Sacramento this season.
