Chapman will undergo further testing and evaluation later this week to determine his exact recovery timetable after landing on the injured list ahead of Tuesday’s series opener against the Rockies. The 32-year-old defensive wizard suffered the injury during Sunday’s game against Atlanta when he dove back into first base on a pickoff attempt. There should be an update on his status and long-term outlook at some point later this week.

Chapman was hurt jamming his hand into first base while diving back on a pickoff attempt Sunday. It shouldn’t be a long absence, but it could still be a costly one for the Giants, as Chapman has again easily been their best player this year. Casey Schmitt and the newly recalled Christian Koss will fill in at third base.

Chapman jammed his hand on first base while diving back on a pickoff attempt during Sunday’s victory over the Braves. It sounds like he was fortunate to have avoided any significant injuries and should be considered day-to-day. Fantasy managers should check on his status prior to Tuesday’s series opener against the Rockies in Colorado just to be on the safe side.

Chapman led off the second inning with a double off of Spencer Strider, swiped third base and scored the Giants’ first run on a sacrifice fly off the bat of Mike Yastrzemski. He then walked in the fourth inning and scored on a two-run double by Yastrzemski. The 32-year-old third baseman finished the day 1-for-2 officially and is now slashing .243/.360/.452 with 12 long balls, 30 RBI and seven stolen bases (in nine attempts) on the year.
