Manager: Andy Green (second season)
Who's new? RHP Jhoulys Chacin, RHP Trevor Cahill, RHP Jered Weaver
Who's gone? RHP Tyson Ross, RHP Brandon Morrow, IF/OF Alexi Amarista, OF Jon Jay, OF Oswaldo Arcia, IF/OF Adam Rosales
Projected lineup: LF Travis Jankowski (.245, 2 HR, 12 RBI, 30 SB), CF Manuel Margot (.243, 0, 3 in 10 games), 1B Wil Myers (.259, 28, 94, 28), 3B Yangervis Solarte (.286, 15, 71), RF Hunter Renfroe (.371, 4, 14 in 11 games), 2B Ryan Schmipf (.217, 20, 51), C Austin Hedges (.125, 0, 1 in eight games), SS Luis Sardinas (.287, 2, 13)
Rotation: RH Jered Weaver (12-12, 5.06 ERA with Angels), RH Jhoulys Chacin (6-8, 4.81 with Angels and Braves), LH Clayton Richard (3-3, 2.52), RH Trevor Cahill (4-4, 2.74 with Cubs), LH Christian Friedrich (5-12, 4.80) or RH Luis Perdomo (9-10, 5.71)
Key relievers: RH Brandon Maurer (0-5, 4.52, 13/19 SV), RH Carter Capps (did not pitch - Tommy John surgery), LH Ryan Buchter (3-0, 2.86), LH Brad Hand (4-4, 2.92), RH Kevin Quackenbush (7-7, 3.92), LH Keith Hessler (1-0, 3.38 with Diamondbacks and Padres), RH Jarred Cosart (0-3, 6.03 with Marlins and Padres)
Hot spots: Bullpen. San Diego's version of a position battle is Green fighting the temptation to bench a young player in the middle of a long slump. Since the Padres are playing for next year anyway, watching bullpen roles shake out might be someone's version of fun. Maurer, the incumbent closer, blew six of 19 save opportunities last year. Hand and Buchter are a pair of workhorse lefties who wouldn't look out of place on a contending team. The wild card is Capps, who is healthy after missing all of 2016 following Tommy John surgery. A year before, he struck out 58 batters in 31 innings with the Marlins.
Outlook: Look up 'rebuilding team' in the dictionary. With only eight active players on the books for more than $1 million ' excluding the retained salaries of Matt Kemp, Melvin Upton Jr. and several other former Padres ' San Diego will field MLB's lowest payroll. Theirs is the youngest roster in baseball too, with perhaps only two players who have turned 30 by Opening Day. Their best prospects are college-age kids in the low minors. So what's to like? Prospect watchers have been awaiting the arrival of Margot and Renfroe for years. The backup catcher, Christian Bethancourt, might pitch. Capps has an unusual delivery. The Padres also ran the bases aggressively under Green, and stolen bases are fun. How's that for a marketing slogan? | | SAN FRANCISCO: 2016: 87-75, second place
Manager: Bruce Bochy (11th season)
Who's new? RHP Mark Melancon, C Nick Hundley, IF Jae-Gyun Hwang
Who's gone? OF Angel Pagan, OF Gregor Blanco, RHP Jake Peavy, RHP Santiago Casilla, RHP Sergio Romo, LHP Javier Lopez
Projected lineup: CF Denard Span (.266, 11 HR, 53 RBI, 12 SB), 1B Brandon Belt (.275, 17 , 82), C Buster Posey (.288, 14, 80), RF Hunter Pence (.289, 13, 57), SS Brandon Crawford (.275, 12, 84), 3B Eduardo Nunez (.288, 16, 67, 40 SBs with Giants and Twins), 2B Joe Panik (.239, 10, 62), LF Jarrett Parker (.236, 5, 14) or Mac Williamson (.223, 6, 15)
Rotation: LH Madison Bumgarner (15-9, 2.74 ERA), RH Johnny Cueto (18-5, 2.79), RH Jeff Samardzija (12-11, 3.81), LH Matt Moore (13-12, 4.08 with Giants and Rays), RH Matt Cain (4-8, 5.64)
Key relievers: RH Mark Melancon (2-2, 1.64, 47/51 SV with Nationals), RH Hunter Strickland (3-3, 3.10), RH Derek Law (4-2, 2.13), LH Steven Okert (0-0, 3.21) or Josh Osich (1-3, 4.71), RH Cory Gearrin (3-2, 4.28), RH George Kontos (3-2, 2.53)
Hot spot: Bullpen and left field. No team blew more saves last year than the Giants. The front office hopes it found the answer by signing three-time All-Star closer Melancon to a (then-record) four-year, $62 million deal, and by cutting ties with Romo and Casilla. They will need to replace Will Smith, a key lefty who tore his UCL in spring training. Veteran outfielder Pagan left after five seasons in San Francisco. Rather than fill his shoes via free agency or trade, the unproven tandem of Williamson and Parker is expected to share time in left.
Outlook: The Giants have an established core of position players, and an enviable 1-2 rotation punch in Bumgarner and Cueto. That's probably why the front office did little in the offseason besides overhaul the back end of the bullpen. Hwang, who hit 26 home runs and drove in 104 last year in Korea, is an intriguing addition to the bench. Mostly the Giants are counting on continuity. Former NL MVP Posey is coming off a below-average season by his standards, and sparkplug Pence missed nearly two months last year with a hamstring injury. Expecting both to bounce back isn't a stretch, and new closer Melancon is as good as they come. At full strength, this Giants team should be able to give the Dodgers a good run. |
| | Giants look to end recent struggles vs. Padres
SAN FRANCISCO -- The San Diego Padres will seek to continue their recent mastery of the San Francisco Giants when the clubs meet for a second time in their four-game series Friday night. After taking two of three from the Giants in San Diego last week, the Padres also prevailed in the first game of the rematch series in San Francisco behind the power hitting of Hunter Renfroe and Cory Spangenberg on Thursday night. In doing so, they spoiled the AT&T Park return of Giants left-hander Madison Bumgarner, who hadn't pitched at home since separating his left shoulder in a dirt-bike accident in April. Right-hander Trevor Cahill (4-3, 3.14 ERA) will try to follow in the footsteps of Jhoulys Chacin, who limited the Giants to two runs and four hits in six innings on Thursday. Cahill had a similar outing -- one run in 6 2/3 innings -- in a 7-1 Padres win over the Giants on Sunday in San Diego. The Padres have now beaten the Giants in 15 of their last 20 meetings. San Diego manager Andy Green was happy his club was able to win the series opener in San Francisco while also getting the Giants ace out of the way at the same time. "Nothing he does really shocks me or anybody in baseball," Green said of Bumgarner. "Even if it's not in midseason form, he's still not an easy draw." Cahill has been a tough draw on the Giants. He is 7-5 with a 3.63 ERA in 17 games, including 14 starts, against the Giants in his career. Denard Span and Eduardo Nunez combined for eight hits last weekend in the three-game series at San Diego, and they each had two hits in the Thursday loss. "They've been doing a real good job of getting on base at the top of the lineup," Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. "We need to do a better job getting better balance throughout the lineup." The Giants will counter in Game 2 of the series with right-hander Jeff Samardzija (4-11, 4.86), who was on the losing end of the matchup with Cahill on Sunday. He allowed seven runs on nine hits in six innings. Samardzija gave up home runs to Hector Sanchez and Cory Spangenberg in the defeat, which pushed him into a tie with Colorado's Tyler Chatwood for the most losses in the National League. He has given up 10 homers in his past seven starts. Spangenberg also connected Thursday against Bumgarner, a tiebreaking, two-run shot in the seventh inning to the farthest part of the ballpark. The ball cleared the wall just to the left of the 421-foot sign. "I'm really impressed," Padres manager Andy Green, a former major league infielder, said of Spangenberg's homer. "That's a long way out there. It'd take me two times hitting it to get it out that far." Samardzija is 7-3 with a 3.68 ERA in 14 games, including 12 starts, against the Padres in his career. Sanchez, a former Giants catcher, is 4-for-9 with five RBIs lifetime against Samardzija. |
