Michael Morse was going to make the Opening Day roster. It seems obvious from the responses to his hamstring injury, with the Giants expressing obvious disappointment and hoping he’ll stick around and rehab with the team. He was going to be the fifth outfielder, with Mac Williamson plying his trade in Sacramento, most likely.
Now what?
A look at some of the permutations:
The infielder-is-now-an-outfielder gambit
C - Nick Hundley
OF - Gorkys Hernandez/Justin Ruggiano
INF - Gillaspie
INF/OF - Aaron Hill or Jae-gyun Hwang
INF/OF - Kelby Tomlinson
Tomlinson would be the speed guy.
