Giants' Luis Matos: Back in majors
Matos was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on Sunday.
Matos is not in Sunday's lineup, but he'll replace Mark Canha (thumb sprain) as a righty-hitting bench option. Matos is just 22 years old, but he was below league average at Triple-A (91 wRC+) and the majors (62 wRC+) this season.

Giants' Luis Matos: Optioned to Triple-A
The Giants optioned Matos to Triple-A Sacramento on Friday.
Matos has gone 2-for-10 with a home run and two runs scored across four games since rejoining the Giants on Sept. 3. Rather than keeping six outfielders on their big-league roster, San Francisco will now send him back to Triple-A in favor of infielder Donovan Walton, who was recalled from Sacramento in a corresponding move.

Giants' Luis Matos: Goes deep Sunday
Matos went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's win over the Padres.
Matos was the latter part of back-to-back home runs against Joe Musgrove in the fifth and picked up his first hit in 10 plate appearances since being called back up Sept. 3. He's struck out multiple times in all three appearances he's made since his return to the majors and won't have a shot at a bigger role unless injuries in front of him arise. For the year, Matos is slashing .211/.235/.340 with five homers, 25 RBI, 13 runs and a 5:24 BB:K in 153 plate appearances.

Giants' Luis Matos: Rejoins big club
The Giants recalled Matos from Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday.
The 22-year-old was optioned to Sacramento in late July but is back with the Giants for the final month of the season. Matos has played in 40 games across his two previous stints in the majors this season and has a .217/.238/.333 slash line with four homers in 143 plate appearances. The right-handed bat of Matos could work as a short-side platoon partner of Grant McCray in center field.

Giants' Luis Matos: Optioned to Sacramento
The Giants optioned Matos to Triple-A Sacramento on Wednesday.
Matos will end up as the odd man out of the Giants' outfield after the team claimed Derek Hill off waivers from Texas on Tuesday. Matos slashed .208/.222/.340 with four RBI in 54 plate appearances after his promotion from Triple-A on June 22, and he will be a likely candidate to return to San Francisco should the team's outfield depth be tested later in the season.

Giants' Luis Matos: Moves into short-side platoon role
Matos is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.
Matos has now taken a seat for four straight matchups against right-handed starting pitchers. He appears to have moved back into a strict short-side platoon role in the Giants outfield following Mike Yastrzemski's return from the injured list Tuesday.

Giants' Luis Matos: Back in lineup Saturday
Matos is starting in right field and batting fifth in Saturday's game against the Guardians.
Matos was scratched from Friday's lineup due to the return of Mike Yastrzemski (elbow), but the former will return after just one game. Since being recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on June 22, Matos has gone 10-for-39 with two home runs and four RBI in 13 games. He'll face off against Cleveland southpaw Logan Allen on Saturday.

Giants' Luis Matos: Scratched from lineup
Matos is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Guardians.
Matos was initially listed as the Giants' starting right fielder but will be replaced by Mike Yastrzemski (elbow) in a revised version of the lineup. It's unclear if Matos is dealing with an injury, or if he was just the odd man out with Yastrzemski being cleared to play.

Giants' Luis Matos: Lifts fourth homer
Matos went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Friday's 5-3 win over the Dodgers.
Matos has been back on the Giants' roster for a week, going 8-for-20 (.400) with two homers and three RBI in that span. He started hot after a call-up in mid-May as well before tailing off at the end of the month, so it'll be important to see him sustain his good hitting. Through 110 plate appearances, the outfielder is slashing .257/.282/.400 with four homers, 23 RBI, 11 runs scored and no stolen bases.

Giants' Luis Matos: Getting regular playing time
Matos will start in right field and bat sixth Thursday against the Cubs, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Matos is being included in the lineup for the fifth time in six games, and he looks like he'll hang on to a regular role in the corner outfield while Mike Yastrzemski (oblique) is on the injured list. Since getting called up from Triple-A Sacramento last weekend, Matos has gone 6-for-14 with a solo home run.

Giants' Luis Matos: Smacks third homer
Matos went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's victory over the Cubs.
Matos jumped on a hanging knuckle-curve from Drew Smyly in the fifth and sent it into the stands in left-center field for his third home run of the campaign and first since May 18 against Colorado. It marked the outfielder's second consecutive two-hit performance and first RBI this month. He's also hit safely in three straight contests and is now batting .320 (8-for-25) in June.

Giants' Luis Matos: Summoned from Sacramento
The Giants recalled Matos from Triple-A Sacramento on Saturday, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
With Mike Yastrzemski (oblique) landing on the injured list in a corresponding move, Matos will return to San Francisco and could serve as Yastrzemski's main replacement in the starting outfield. The 22-year-old has slashed just .224/.247/.329 with 20 RBI across 89 plate appearances during his time in the big leagues this season.

Giants' Luis Matos: Heading back to Triple-A
The Giants optioned Matos to Triple-A Sacramento on Wednesday.
After being recalled from Sacramento on May 12, Matos operated as a near-everyday player during his three-plus-week stay with the Giants, but he moved to the bench Monday after Michael Conforto was reinstated from the IL. Though Matos rejoined the lineup Tuesday against Diamondbacks lefty Blake Walston, Matos will lose his spot, with the Giants bringing back another right-handed-hitting outfielder (Austin Slater) back onto the active roster for Wednesday's series finale in Arizona. Matos likely would have had a case for sticking around with the Giants if he had been performing well, but he had fallen into a 2-for-22 drought at the dish over his last six starts.
