Giants' Bo Davidson: In Friday's lineup
Rotowire
Davidson (foot) will start in right field and bat fourth Friday against the Dodgers, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Davidson was pulled from Wednesday's game early after fouling a ball off his foot, but he appears to be feeling well enough to play after getting an extra day off Thursday. The 24-year-old outfielder has collected a base hit in each of his first three MLB games while adding two runs and a steal, but it may be harder for him to find success Friday against formidable lefty Tarik Skubal.

Giants' Bo Davidson: Exits early Wednesday
Rotowire
Davidson was removed from Wednesday's game against the Twins with a foot injury, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Davidson remained in the game for a while after fouling a ball off his foot in the sixth inning, but he was eventually replaced in the outfield when the Giants' defense took the field in the ninth. X-rays on his foot came back negative shortly after the game, per Pavlovic, but Scott Bandura and Grant McCray could be candidates to start in right field if Davidson is unable to play in Friday's series opener against the Dodgers.

Giants' Bo Davidson: Expected to be called up
Rotowire
Davidson will join the Giants in San Francisco and is likely to be added to the roster before Monday's game against the Twins, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
There's no word on whose roster spot he will take, but Jung Hoo Lee (groin) and Bryce Eldridge (head) are both banged up. Davidson has slashed .290/.361/.527 with 29 home runs, 20 stolen bases and a 53:118 BB:K over 125 games between the Double-A and Triple-A levels this season to earn his first promotion to the big leagues.

Giants' Bo Davidson: Big finish for Flying Squirrels
Rotowire
Davidson is hitting .305 with four home runs, two steals and a 20.3 percent strikeout rate over his last 13 games for Double-A Richmond.
A toolsy 23-year-old outfielder, Davidson comfortably handled High-A pitching to the tune of a .309/.412/.507 slash line, 10 homers and 12 steals in 72 games while being old for the level before getting promoted to Double-A on July 16. He got off to a slower start after the jump in competition, but he's closing the season strong. Davidson is on track to return to Double-A next year before spending the summer at Triple-A. He is flirting with a 20/20 season, sitting at 17 homers and 19 steals in 111 total games.
Giants' Bo Davidson: Elite hard-hit rate at Single-A
Rotowire
Davidson slashed .328/.438/.608 with nine home runs and six steals in 53 games for Single-A San Jose.
The Giants gave Davidson $50,000 as an undrafted free agent in 2023, and he has been hyper productive thus far in pro ball while being old for his levels. A 22-year-old center fielder with plus speed, Davidson posted an elite 43 percent hard-hit rate this season, so he clearly has massive tools worth tracking as he advances up the ladder. His 70.5 percent contact rate and 24.7 percent strikeout rate this season are poor marks given his age, but it's not hopeless.
