Giants' Harrison Bader: Placed on IL with hamstring strain

The Giants placed Bader on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a left hamstring strain.

Analysis:

Bader first hurt his hamstring late in spring training. While he avoided the IL initially, the injury has continued to linger and likely contributed to his lackluster .115/.145/.192 batting line. Jung Hoo Lee will likely shift over to center field while Bader is out, opening up right field for Jerar Encarnacion, Drew Gilbert and Will Brennan.
