How Mac Williamson’s hot spring impacts the Giants’ outfield outlook

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.–The Giants already have a starting left fielder and a starting right fielder, but if the team was looking for a tight end, Mac Williamson could play the part.

At 6-foot-4 and 237 pounds, Williamson is an imposing physical presence who looks like he’d have as much ease bowling over safeties as he does launching batting practice home runs.

Since the Giants drafted Williamson out of Wake Forest in 2012, he’s never had an issue looking the part. It’s fulfilling all of his athletic potential that hasn’t come so easily.

Williamson has appeared in 92 games across three seasons with San Francisco, but he’s never forced his way into the lineup on a consistent basis.
