Happy Wednesday, folks.
The San Francisco Giants didn’t use any new players during their Tuesday victory over the Philadelphia Phillies, but if you looked at the lineup before the game you probably noticed some names that you didn’t expect to see when the season started.
Of the 10 players that started the game for the Giants, a whole half of them weren’t on the active roster on Opening Day. Three of them weren’t even on the 40-man roster. Two of them weren’t even in the organization.
Using a lot of players has been part of the Giants foundation ever since Farhan Zaidi took over.
