San Francisco Giants outfielder
Jung Hoo Lee went 3-for-6 with a home run and three RBI in his team's 14-5 victory over the Chicago Cubs on Sunday. His other two hits were singles, and he scored two runs. Lee put the Giants up 4-0 in the top of the third with his fourth dinger of the season, scoring
Willy Adames. The second-year pro's third RBI came during a scoring outburst in the top of the eleventh inning when the Giants sealed Chicago away for good with an impressive nine runs. Lee has been excellent for the team in 2025, batting a crisp .312 and doubling his home run production from a season ago (four) in seven fewer at-bats. How high he'll reach in that figure remains to be seen, but he's definitely figured something out regarding his swing, and statcast supports the gains (.315 xBA).

San Francisco Giants outfielder
Jung Hoo Lee is out of the team's starting lineup with a left-hander on the mound on Thursday against the division-rival Colorado Rockies. With Lee getting a day off against a southpaw,
Luis Matos will make the start in center field and will hit sixth against Rockies left-hander
Kyle Freeland. Lee has been outstanding for the Giants through the first month of the 2025 season and is currently in the midst of a modest seven-game hitting streak in which he's gone 9-for-27 with a double, three RBI and three runs scored in 29 plate appearances. Overall, the Japanese outfielder has a strong .319/.375/.526 slash line with a .901 OPS, three homers, 18 RBI, 23 runs, three stolen bases, a league-leading 11 doubles and 11 walks in 30 games. Matos is hitting .158 (6-for-38) with a homer and has hit .333 in just six career at-bats against Freeland.

Wilmer Flores and outfielder
Jung Hoo Lee will take a seat on Thursday afternoon as the Giants will face Philadelphia southpaw
Cristopher Sanchez. Flores has enjoyed an impressive start to the campaign, holding a .242/.286/.515 slash line with 16 total hits and six long balls. He tallied 23 RBI and scored 11 runs. Lee has also been swinging a hot bat as he has slashed a strong .338/.395/.647 line with 10 doubles and three round-trippers across the first 17 contests of the regular season. Fantasy managers should expect both Flores and Lee to likely rejoin the starting nine on Friday evening when they face the Angels. However, the Angels are scheduled to send out lefty
Tyler Anderson, which could keep Lee out of the lineup. Instead,
Luis Matos will cover center field, and Casey Schmidt will cover first base. The Giants should be faded in DFS facing Sanchez, who enters Thursday with a strong 3.12 ERA.

San Francisco Giants outfielder
Jung Hoo Lee stayed red-hot on Wednesday, going 2-for-5 with two RBI and two runs scored during the team's 11-4 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies. He opened the scoring with an RBI single in the first inning and added a sacrifice fly in the sixth to extend the Giants' lead. Lee is now batting .338 with a 1.042 OPS, three home runs, and 12 RBIs through 16 games this season. The 26-year-old has seen a meteoric rise in rostership across fantasy platforms, and at this point he should be rostered and started universally.
