Having both Pablo and Mac on the bench gives you both a righty and lefty that are capable of hitting a late inning HR. Slater has options. Parker doesnt. But I think the Giants have seen enough of him. Hes a AAAA Guy.
Agree with you on Parker. I'd really like to see Slater make the team, I think he could be a difference maker. But he's not having a great spring (.222, 4 for 18) and Williamson is crushing it (.370/.370/.852/1.222). And the OPS is not a misprint, he has zero walks in 27 ABs this spring. But he's leading the team in RBI with 12, he has 3 HRs, 2 doubles, 1 triple.
Jensen is second on the team with 9 RBIs. He's scored 10 runs in 15 official at bats (six hits, 5 HRs, 7 walks). Slash line of .400 .609 1.400 2.009.
Pitchers are starting to come around. 12 of them have 0.00 ERAs, including Gearrin, Melancon, Dyson, Strickland and Osich. Blach has started three games and has a 1.08 ERA. My guess is he'll be the fifth starter absent arm problems, and Stratton with his 2.25 spring ERA has probably solidified a hold on the #4 spot. Even Chris Heston -- remember his 12-11 season in 2015, with a no-hitter? He has a 3.00 ERA in three innings. Cueto, 3.60; Bum, 4.50; Samardzija, 8.10.
