Matt Chapman Update Surfaces After Removal From Giants' Lineup originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The San Francisco Giants have lost four straight games and now face an uphill battle to return to the postseason, currently sitting 5.5 games back of the third NL Wild Card spot.

Whether the Giants truly believe they can crawl back into contention or not, it will have to start with playing one clean game.

Even though Chapman is back, the Giants are still going to be hard-pressed to make the playoffs this year. The NL has been extremely good, and they are staring up at some talented teams within their division as well. While Chapman might end up with another fantastic campaign, it likely won’t be enough to get San Francisco into the playoffs.
