Matt Chapman, recovering from a right hand injury, is optimistic about returning to the field before the All-Star Break. Recently, he took significant steps by swinging off a batting tee and playing catch for the first time since being placed on the injured list. Manager Bob Melvin indicates Chapman is ahead of schedule in his rehabilitation. While Chapman feels he is about 85% recovered, he recognizes that a full assessment will require facing game velocity. His timeline suggests a potential return during the Giants' home stand before the break.
There's no guarantee that Matt Chapman will return from his right hand injury prior to the All-Star Break, but on Tuesday, the third baseman took two important steps towards coming back before the season's midway point.
It's probably up to 85 percent. Not quite all the way there. I'm going to keep progressing, and the hope is to come back before the All-Star Break.
