EDGE Analysis

Encarnacion missed more than a month due to a Grade 2 hamstring strain. He previously missed nearly two months due to an oblique injury, but it's a positive that he was able to be involved in run production in his return to big-league action Saturday. He's batting .176 with two home runs, four RBI, four runs scored and a stolen base over 11 games in the majors this season.

The Giants reinstated Encarnacion (hamstring) from the injured list Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

A Grade 2 strain in Encarnacion's right hamstring has kept him on the shelf since early August. After playing in five rehab games and going 2-for-17 with two RBI, a run scored and a steal, the 27-year-old outfielder will return to San Francisco and replace Dominic Smith (hamstring) on the 28-man roster. Encarnacion will start in right field and bat seventh Saturday but isn't expected to receive regular starts down the stretch.

Encarnacion (hamstring) began his rehab assignment with Triple-A Sacramento on Friday, going 0-for-4 as the designated hitter in a 2-1 extra-inning loss to Las Vegas.

EDGE Analysis

Encarnacion was placed on the 10-day injured list Aug. 8 (retroactive to Aug. 7) due to a strained right hamstring, though he is seemingly nearing a return to the big leagues. The 27-year-old has appeared in two rehab games with Sacramento this month, batting 0-for-7 over that span. He has dealt with multiple injuries this season -- including a strained left oblique and a fractured left hand -- appearing in just 10 big-league outings. During that span, Encarnacion has recorded a .167/.167/.400 slash line with two home runs, a double and a stolen base across 30 plate appearances. He's expected to return to the majors before the end of the regular season.

EDGE Analysis

EDGE Analysis

Encarnacion has been on the 10-day injured list since Aug. 8 due to a Grade 2 right hamstring strain, so it's good to see that he's been cleared for the next phase in his rehab. The team could identify next steps for the 27-year-old later in the week if his hitting and throwing progressions begin to ramp up according to plan.

Encarnacion is expected to be sidelined for up to six weeks due to a Grade 2 right hamstring strain, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Encarnacion will remain on the 10-day injured list well beyond his reinstatement eligibility date of Aug. 17 while he works through a right hamstring strain. A clearer timeline for his return should be established once he's cleared to resume baseball activities. Drew Gilbert is in line to see more work in the outfield for as long as Encarnacion is sidelined.

The Giants placed Encarnacion on the 10-day injured list Friday due to a right hamstring strain, retroactive to Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Encarnacion strained his hamstring while attempting to beat out an infield single in the seventh inning of Wednesday's game against the Pirates. It's his third stint on the IL this season, having previously been sidelined with a strained oblique and a fractured hand. It's unclear exactly how long Encarnacion will be sidelined for, but the nature of his injury means he'll likely remain on the IL beyond when he's eligible to be activated (Aug. 17). Drew Gilbert's contract was selected from Triple-A Sacramento in a corresponding move.

Giants manager Bob Melvin indicated that Encarnacion will be placed on the 10-day injured list after exiting Wednesday's 4-2 win over Pittsburgh with a right hamstring injury, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Encarnacion hurt himself in the seventh inning Wednesday while trying to beat out an infield single.

He previously missed time with a fractured hand and a strained oblique.

EDGE Analysis

Encarnacion appeared to tweak his hamstring while trying to beat out an infield single in the top of the seventh inning and was removed for defense before the bottom of the frame. He cranked a solo home run in one of his three plate appearances before being lifted. The Giants should have more information on Encarnacion's status after the game.
