Summary

The San Francisco Giants have officially placed Matt Chapman on the 60-Day Injured List due to an abdominal strain, confirming that his season is over. Chapman was already slated for surgery related to a sports hernia, marking a disappointing season for the player with career lows in performance metrics.
