5/26 Gamethread: Giants vs. Diamondbacks

Two-game sweeps aren’t quite as exciting as three or four-game sweeps, but the San Francisco Giants should still go for one, in my opinion.

When: 6:40 p.m. PT

Lineups

Buster Posey is still in the lineup, which I’m guessing means he’ll only play in two of the four games against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

1. RF — Mike Yastrzemski (L) — .221/.329/.471 — 125 OPS+
2. C — Buster Posey (R) — .351/.429/.631 — 197 OPS+
3. LF — Alex Dickerson (L) — .236/.296/.396 — 95 OPS+
