San Francisco Giants first baseman Darin Ruf came up with a huge hit during Thursday's contest against the Los Angeles Dodgers. The 35-year-old slugger crushed a grand slam off Alex Vesia in the fifth inning. He turned what was a 5-1 contest into a tie game, but sadly it didn't last. The Giants would eventually drop this contest 9-6, but that shouldn't take away from Ruf's monster homer. The right-handed slugger now has 10 home runs and 36 RBI through 81 games this season. He could be worth an add in deep leagues for fantasy managers looking for a power bat.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller

Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Darin Ruf (knee) exited Friday's loss to the Cincinnati Reds. The veteran suffered a right knee laceration in the third inning after running into the tarp while going after a foul ball. Ruf needed stitches to close the wound, with Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reporting that the 36-year-old was "banged-up pretty badly." He was replaced in the game by Rowdy Tellez, who went 0-for-4 while striking out twice. That said, Ruf could miss time. But considering he's hitting .192 this season, an extended layoff shouldn't negatively impact many fantasy managers.--Dennis Clausen - RotoBaller

The Milwaukee Brewers have agreed to terms on a one-year deal with first baseman Darin Ruf on Monday. The right-handed slugger was recently designated for assignment by the San Francisco Giants. He elected free agency over a minor league assignment, which ended up working out well for him. The Brewers needed a first baseman with Luke Voit (neck) heading to the injured list. Ruf is hitting .261/.370/.348 with no homers and three RBI in 23 at-bats this season. He has plenty of big league experience and is normally a reliable option versus left-handed pitching. However, Ruf probably won't be worth looking at in most fantasy formats.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller

The San Francisco Giants activated infielder/outfielder Darin Ruf (wrist) from the 10-day injured list and designated him for assignment on Tuesday. The Giants also optioned outfielder Cal Stevenson to Triple-A Sacramento after Monday's game. Before getting injured, Ruf had six hits in 23 at-bats (.261 average) with two doubles and three RBI in nine games for the Giants at the major-league level. He went 4-for-20 with a double and an RBI in five minor-league rehab games. There's a chance the 36-year-old will remain in the organization if he passes through waivers. Ruf is currently well off the fantasy radar and is just hoping for another chance in the big leagues in 2023.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

The San Francisco Giants have selected the contract of infielder Darin Ruf from Triple-A Sacramento. The 36-year-old is back with the Giants after being released by the New York Mets following spring training. Ruf will serve as the designated hitter and bat fifth versus left-hander Clayton Kershaw on Wednesday. In a corresponding move, righty pitcher Sean Hjelle has been optioned to the minors to make room for Ruf on the active roster.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller
