San Francisco Giants DFS SPIN
Luis González finished 0-for-4 as the Giants’ No. 9 hitter Monday against the Padres. González is hitting just .203 with one homer and six RBI in 89 plate appearances since rejoining the Giants’ lineup a month ago. He’d seem to be in line to lose some playing time now that Joc Pederson is back.
San Diego Padres DFS SPIN
Jorge Alfaro was removed from Monday’s game against the Giants due to a right knee injury. Alfaro remained in the contest initially after an on-field evaluation, but was eventually lifted for Austin Nola in the eighth inning. The veteran backstop missed a chunk of time in late June due to right knee inflammation, but it’s unclear if this issue is directly related. There should be an update on his status in the near future.

They’re also 1-8 in their last nine games versus an opponent with a winning record and are 1-5 in their last six games after scoring two runs or less in their previous game. The Padres, meanwhile, are undefeated in their last five games when facing a right-handed starter, are 5-2 in their last seven home games and are 4-1 in their last five games when taking on an opponent with a losing record.
