San Francisco Giants 2013 Lineup & Roster Preview
San Francisco Giants Players 2013
The San Francisco Giants lineup features World Series MVP Pablo Sandoval and National League MVP Buster Posey. Despite the loss of Melky Cabrera after the banned substance controversy, they still have Hunter Pence and strong supporting players like Angel Pagan and Marco Scutaro. One of the Giants’ additional strengths is their pitching staff, a staff that includes Matt Cain, Ryan Vogelsong, Madison Bumgarner, Barry Zito, and Tim Lincecum. The staff’s ERA was an impressive 3.68 last year and with everyone returning in 2013, more of the same can be expected. Perhaps another World Series appearance is in the making? We shall see.
