San Francisco Giants shortstop Willy Adames has dealt with consecutive injuries during the August 2026 period.

Initially, Adames left a game against the Houston Astros due to back spasms occurring in the seventh inning. Following this, the team announced that Adames has been placed on the 10-day injured list due to a “moderate sprained left elbow” sustained while sliding home during a game against the Boston Red Sox. While the elbow injury may sideline him for a significant period, manager Tony Vitello expressed optimism regarding a return before the end of the season.
