Lee’s season is officially over after hitting .276/.320/.404 with 65 runs scored, 10 homers, 57 RBI and 12 steals in 579 plate appearances. The 28-year-old outfielder offers a little bit of production across every category from a fantasy standpoint and is going to finish the year as a top-50 range option at the position. He’ll be a relatively low-upside roster filler in drafts next spring.
It was one of two Giants hits and the only one that went for extra bases. Lee’s hitting just .212/.317/.250 in his last 52 at bats and has seen his playing time shortened a bit as the Giants play out the string.
Lee finally got the Giants on the board with an RBI single in the eighth inning, trimming their deficit to 5-1. He also drew a walk in the contest, reaching base safely in three of his four plate appearances. On the season, the 28-year-old outfielder is now slashing .291/.331/.424 with nine homers, 48 RBI and 11 stolen bases in 501 plate appearances.
Lee was back patrolling right field and hitting fifth following a two-game absence due to an elbow contusion after being hit by a pitch earlier this week. He picked up his 11th stolen base of the season and reached safely in two of his four plate appearances. He’s graded out as a reliable top-30 range fantasy outfielder this season, hitting .289/.328/.422 with 61 runs scored, nine homers, 47 RBI and 11 thefts in 497 plate appearances. He’s on track to play nearly a full season for the second straight year after being limited to just 37 games due to injury in his stateside debut back in 2024.
Lee, 28, was scratched from the lineup Wednesday against the Reds due to elbow irritation, but he’s good to go for the opening tilt of a three-game series against the Diamondbacks.
Lee is dealing with an elbow bruise after being hit by a pitch in Tuesday’s game. The Giants don’t believe there is any major concern here. Grant McCray will play right field in his place on Wednesday.
Lee drew a walk in the first inning, then singled to lead off the fourth and scored on a sacrifice fly. He then singled again in the inning as the Giants hit around the order. The 27-year-old outfielder has hit an excellent .293/.329/.435 with nine homers, 58 runs scored, 46 RBI, and eight steals across 459 plate appearances.
Lee’s 382-footer down the right field line only barely missed being a splash hit. He now has one more homer than he did last year in 175 fewer plate appearances.
Lee has mostly hit fifth, sixth and seventh of late, but he was up to second tonight with Luis Arraez and Heliot Ramos out of the mix and he came through with one of his best games as a major leaguer. That he should remain in an elevated spot in the lineup might give him a little extra fantasy value down the stretch, even though the Giants figure to really struggle to score runs.
Lee is back patrolling right field and hitting fifth following a two-game absence due to elbow soreness after being hit by a pitch over the weekend. The 27-year-old has delivered a strong .302 batting average with six homers and six steals through 96 games this season.
Lee will sit out a second straight contest with right elbow soreness after being hit by a pitch over the weekend. The 27-year-old outfielder isn’t dealing with any structural issues and should be ready to return at some point this week. He’s been a strong fantasy contributor in the batting average department, hitting .302 through 96 games. He’s also chipped in six homers and six steals as well. It’ll be Grant McCray in right field on Monday night in his place.
He’s not dealing with any structural issues, but is still feeling a bit sore after being plunked on Saturday evening so he’ll get a day off to rest. Grant McCray will start in his place in right field and will bat ninth for the Giants against Jose Soriano and the Angels on Sunday afternoon in San Francisco.
Lee extended the Giants’ lead in the third inning, highlighting a five-run frame with a three-run blast off Ryan Johnson for his sixth home run of the year. He then added a double in the fifth and was hit by a pitch in the seventh. The 27-year-old outfielder is hitting .302/.336/.435 with six homers, 51 runs scored, 37 RBI, and six steals across 384 plate appearances.
Lee has been in a bit of a funk at the plate, going just 7-for-44 with one extra-base hit over his last 12 games, so the Giants will give him a night off to clear his head. Drew Gilbert will start in his place in center field and will bat eighth for the Giants against Ryan Feltner and the Rockies.
Lee took over as the major league leader in average for a brief spell last month, peaking at .333, but he’s just 7-for-44 with one extra-base hit and one walk in his last 12 games. Given that he’s not big with the homers or steals, he needs to hit over .300 to be of any real use in shallow leagues. He’s still at .311 right now, but Statcast thinks he’s been kind of lucky. He currently has a .327 BABIP, but he’s not hitting the ball any harder than last year, when he posted a .291 BABIP and batted .266.
Lee put the Giants on the board with the first run of the game as he took Aaron Civale deep for a solo homer in the second inning. He later added a base hit in the fourth and drew a walk in the sixth before stealing second. He looked to be a bit banged up after a collision on the steal, but remained in the game. The 27-year-old outfielder is hitting .331/.365/.470 with five homers, 40 runs scored, 27 RBI, and five steals across 285 plate appearances.
Rafael Devers and Lee went back-to-back in the fifth inning after play resumed Wednesday. It was Lee’s first homer since May 14 and only his fourth of the year, but he’s second in the majors with his .331 average.
His one out tonight was actually a liner to left with an .800 xBA. Lee went without an RBI, as the three guys ahead of him in the order combined to go 2-for-14. This is his fourth four-hit game in his last 11 starts, a stretch in which he’s raised his average from .268 to .333. He’s tied with Brandon Marsh for second in MLB in average, three points behind Otto Lopez.
Lee has remained hot since his 11-hit outburst at Coors Field over the weekend, going 8-for-14 in the four games against the Brewers. He’s all of the way up to fourth in the majors with his .322 average, putting him just behind teammate Luis Arraez in third place at .325.
That’s an 11-hit series for Lee, who went 4-for-5 on Friday and 2-for-4 with a triple last night. The five hits today were a new high for him since arriving in the U.S. He’s raised his average from .268 to .304 in three games since coming off the injured list.
