Time for a new mailbag. As I pack my bags for Arizona, I’m planning on putting out this month’s Free For All Mailbag next Friday (which should be the day I touch down), March 15. That’s also the day of the Giants’ Spring Breakouts game against the A’s, which is first item on my To Do list once I’m in Scottsdale.
To help me start thinking about the year to come, let me know what’s on your mind! Which players/teams/pitches/ballpark food have you found yourself thinking about as you get ready for the new year. Send ‘em in and I’ll do my best to answer.
Roupp seems to be all anyone is talking about at camp. Any idea what he has worked on this offseason to come out such a hot commodity?
What does a good season for Vaun Brown look like this year? He has been struggling to stay on the field for so long that I don't know what the expectation should be if he is healthy for a full season.
I think my biggest question is about Luciano. Much like last year with Villar at 3B, the Giants have been talking about how committed they are to Marco taking the shortstop role and running with it. He really has not impressed so far in camp, and Ahmed has been hitting really well. I don't think this was the plan, but how do you keep Marco on the 26 if things stay on their current path?
