McLain (shoulder/rib) has been cleared to resume baseball work, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Mclain's recovery from offseason surgery on his left shoulder was derailed in early August when he sustained a stress reaction in his rib cage. He was temporarily shut down from baseball activities and a rehab assignment scheduled to begin Aug. 12 was cancelled. However, he's back to swinging a bat and participating in other drills. The Reds haven't announced a new date for McLain to start his minor-league rehab assignment, and he shouldn't be expected back until September.

Fitzgerald went 1-for-4 with an RBI and two stolen bases Thursday in a 6-0 win against Atlanta.

Fitzgerald began the Giants' half of the first inning with a single, which he followed with a steal of second and third base. The rookie then added a sacrifice fly in the second frame. Fitzgerald has been an incredible pickup for fantasy managers astute enough to claim him off the waiver wire -- through 61 games, he's slashing .311/.365/.617 with 14 homers, 27 RBI, 37 runs and 14 stolen bases. He isn't showing any signs of slowing down, batting .333 (20-for-60) with five home runs and seven thefts through 14 games in August.

Schmitt went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run in Thursday's 6-0 win against Atlanta.

Schmitt increased San Francisco's lead from 2-0 to 4-0 with his two-run blast in the sixth inning. He finished the game with three hits -- as many as he had tallied over his previous 12 games and 31 at-bats combined. Schmitt's five homers through 80 plate appearances this year are as many as he hit over 277 plate appearances in 2023, but he's also carrying a poor .208/.225/.442 slash line on the season.

Wisely is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against Atlanta.

With southpaw Max Fried toeing the rubber for Atlanta, the lefty-hitting Wisely will exit the starting nine. Platoon mate Casey Schmitt will check in for Wisely at the keystone.

Fitzgerald went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 13-2 loss to Atlanta.

Fitzgerald continues to show no signs of slowing down at the plate -- he's 19-for-56 (.339) with five homers and four doubles over 13 games in August. His blast Wednesday had little impact on the game, as Atlanta had already established a 5-0 lead in the top of the first inning before he responded. Overall, Fitzgerald has 14 homers, 12 stolen bases, 26 RBI, 37 runs scored and a .313/.369/.626 slash line through 195 plate appearances.

Betts is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game in Milwaukee, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Betts started the first three games of the series -- his first three contests back from from the injured list -- but will take a seat for Thursday's afternoon finale. Jason Heyward will patrol right field for the Dodgers and Teoscar Hernandez will move up to the second spot in the batting order.

Lindor went 2-for-5 with a solo home run, an additional RBI and two total run scored in Wednesday's 9-1 win over the Athletics.

Lindor logged multiple hits for the fourth game in a row and the sixth time during his active eight-game hitting streak. He also snapped a power drought with his first homer since July 25. The star shortstop is up to a .263/.336/.465 slash line, 23 homers, 69 RBI, 79 runs scored, 24 stolen bases and 30 doubles across 120 contests, providing well-rounded production out of the leadoff spot.

Rojas isn't in the Dodgers' lineup for Wednesday's game versus Milwaukee.

Rojas has tallied a base hit in all five games he's played in since returning from the injured list last week, and he'll now get a breather against right-hander Frankie Montas. Nick Ahmed will get the starting nod at shortstop instead and bat ninth.

The Giants optioned Luciano to Triple-A Sacramento on Wednesday, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

After coming up from the minors in late July, Luciano went 4-for-21 with nine strikeouts over seven games. He'll now be sent back to Triple-A in order to make room for outfielder Grant McCray, but Luciano remains a top candidate to return to San Francisco should the Giants run into problems with infield depth.

Turner is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.

Turner went 2-for-16 at the dish over the Phillies' last four games and hadn't had a day off since July 31, so manager Rob Thomson will give the veteran shortstop a chance to regroup before Philadelphia opens a four-game series with Washington on Thursday. Edmundo Sosa will replace Turner at shortstop and bat seventh.
