Yastrzemski (hamstring inflammation) is not in Thursday's lineup against the Padres, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
MRI results showed minor inflammation in his left hamstring but no strain, so Yastrzemski is considered day-to-day. Luis Matos is starting in right field while Bryce Johnson starts in center.

MRI results showed minor inflammation in Yastrzemski's left hamstring but no strain, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
Yastrzemski has already spent some time on the IL this season because of his left hamstring, but it seems the veteran outfielder won't require another stint. Yastrzemski even said he wanted to remain in Wednesday's game after tweaking his hamstring, but the team's trainers didn't want to risk anything. He is still considered day-to-day.

Yastrzemski was removed from Wednesday's game against San Diego due to left hamstring tightness, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
While running from first to third in the fifth inning on a J.D. Davis single, Yastrzemski tweaked something in his left hamstring -- the same hamstring that caused him to spend half a month on the injured list in May. There's no telling yet whether or not he'll need another IL stint, but more details will likely come out prior to Thursday's game with the Padres. The veteran outfielder is slashing .310/.375/.759 with four homers and 10 RBI over his last seven games

Yastrzemski was pulled from Wednesday's game against the Padres with an apparent leg injury, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
Yastrzemski appeared to tweak something in his leg while running from first base to third during the fifth inning and had to leave the game. The Giants will take a look at Yastrzemski and provide more details in the near future, but the 32-year-old outfielder should be considered day-to-day until then.

Yastrzemski went 3-for-4 with two home runs, three total runs and four total RBI in Monday's 7-4 extra-inning win over the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
Yastrzemski swatted a solo shot to right field in the sixth inning before playing the hero in the 10th with a three-run walk-off blast. It was the first multi-homer game of the season for the outfielder, and the pair of long balls pushed his total to 10 on the campaign. Four of those have come over his past six games, a stretch during which Yastrzemski is batting .308 (8-for-26) with nine runs and 10 RBI.

Yastrzemski went 2-for-4 with a homer, three RBI and two runs scored in Wednesday's 8-5 win over the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
Yastrzemski played the role of hero in the top of the ninth, launching a two-run home run off Giovanny Gallegos to tie the game 5-5. The center fielder also had an RBI single in the seventh inning to bring the Giants within two runs and now has five RBI over his last two games to go along with four runs scored. Yastrzemski has also homered in back-to-back games after hitting just one long ball in May.

Yastrzemski went 1-for-4 with a walk, a two-run home run and a second run scored in Tuesday's 11-3 rout of the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
He took Genesis Cabrera deep in the sixth inning, giving Yastrzemski his first long ball in June. It's been a rough month so far for the veteran outfielder, who's batting just .179 (5-for-28) in his last 10 games, but on the season he has a respectable .767 OPS with seven homers, 18 RBI and 30 runs through 48 contests.

Yastrzemski is not in the lineup Thursday against the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
Austin Slater will start in center field and bat eighth for the Giants in the matinee game at Coors Field. Yastrzemski is slashing just .190/.288/.345 in 67 plate appearances since he returned May 16 from a two-week absence for a left hamstring strain.

Yastrzemski went 0-for-4 with two walks and a run scored in Tuesday's 10-4 win over the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
Yastrzemski was the only member of the Giants' starting lineup to fail to record a hit. He was dealing with a minor side injury Sunday that kept him out of the lineup versus the Orioles. The outfielder should be back in his usual role if the injury doesn't pop up again. He's at a .257/.319/.461 slash line with six home runs, 16 RBI, 27 runs scored and 11 doubles through 41 contests this season, and he's been solid lately by hitting safely in nine of his last 11 games.
