Nick Ahmed, 34, was designated for assignment by the Giants, with Thairo Estrada and Wilmer Flores coming back from the injured list. This move suggests Brett Wisely will handle shortstop duties moving forward.
Initially signed as insurance, Ahmed played in 52 games for the Giants, maintaining defense, but struggling offensively with a .232 batting average and .581 OPS.
With Thairo Estrada's return, Wisely's playing time is ensured, allowing the Giants to utilize the versatile 25-year-old left-handed hitter who has been performing well at the plate.
