Giants Depth Chart
The projected depth chart found below has been compiled with input from MLB.com's San Francisco Giants beat reporter, Maria Guardado. This is not an official depth chart, and it has not been approved by anyone in Giants management. Some players may be listed at more than one position for the Giants, if they are starting at one and serving as a reserve at another. MLB.com also has listed prominent Giants Minor League players based on their chances of being called up to fill a need, rather than based on their ultimate Major League potential, although sometimes there could be an overlap in those descriptions.
