Last year we did a great job of getting this to be a weekly feature. We’ll see if we can repeat that. Anyway, wondering why some guys didn’t show up on rosters? What’s up with the new ACL schedule? What the food is like at The Diamond?
Anything Giants Player Development related that you’re interested in, I’ll do my best to answer.
When the likes of Jackson, Hjelle, Cobb are fit do you see Roupp staying around? Do you see him returning to starting or have the Giants got him pegged for relief now?
The Giants OF is in a state of flux, so to speak. Slater and Yaz are aging and unproductive veterans, Conforto is on a one-year audition, and the other OFs are two IFs (Wade and Fitzgerald, who can play anywhere). Only Jung Hoon Lee can be considered a long-term piece. Given this scenario, who are the next wave of potential MLB OFs? Matos is likely the next one up, but who would come after him? Heliot Ramos seems to have played his way out of the picture. We had high hopes for Vaun Brown and Rodney McCray, but they seem to have stalled a bit. Victor Bericoto? Wade Meckler? Is Bryce Eldridge locked in at 1B vs. OF at this point?
