2 years agoThe San Francisco Giants placed second baseman Thairo Estrada (illness) on the COVID-19 injured list on Sunday. He is dealing with a sore throat and a headache, but he hasn't tested positive for COVID-19. To fill his roster spot, the team recalled Yermin Mercedes from Triple-A. Estrada has been a mainstay in the Giants' lineup this year. Over 70 games, he's slashed .256/.311/.386 with six home runs, 11 stolen bases, 31 RBI and 40 runs. Mercedes, meanwhile, was claimed off waivers by the Giants about two weeks back. He had a brief stint with the Giants, making two appearances, prior to being sent to Triple-A. This will be his second stint with the team and there's a good chance it's another short one.--Andrew Ericksen - RotoBaller
