Buster Posey acknowledged the Giants' issues at first base, primarily due to LaMonte Wade Jr.'s struggles, as he is batting just .171 this season. With the anticipated return of Jerar Encarnación from injury, who had been a prospect for the position, Posey indicated there would be changes in roster management. Wade's lack of production has raised concerns, leading some to speculate he may be cut. Additionally, another potential candidate, Marco Luciano, is emerging from Triple-A Sacramento, further complicating the first base situation.
"We need to get more production out of that position, there's no question," Posey said about first base struggles.
"It was nice he got a big hit yesterday in the game, and hopefully he can get that going, but... we are going to need some more production" regarding Wade.
"Reading between the lines, sounds like LaMonte's out when Encarnacion comes back," one listener texted in.
Another option for first may be emerging in Sacramento in Marco Luciano.
