The Giants have until noon Thursday to set their roster. While most of the attention is paid to the guys who make the team, the most fascinating part of all this might be what president of baseball operations Farhan Zaidi and general manager Scott Harris do to open roster spots.
Both catchers will be non-roster invitees, and Pablo Sandoval, Yolmer Sanchez and Darin Ruf are locks for the infield. None are currently on the 40-man roster. Rico Garcia, Carlos Navas, Andrew Triggs and Trevor Oaks are in contention to win a bullpen spot, and all would have to be added as well.
