  1. Top of the River Cats Lineup:
    Meckler 2B
    Matos RF
    McCray CF
    Eldridge 1B
    Luciano LF
    ...
    SP Carson Seymour

    Future Giant lineup?
    Antonio Jimenez LHP relieved Seymour as he reached 102 pitches getting the 2nd out in the 6th. Perhaps 100 was his limit?
    Jimenez @ 24 yo elected free agency after last year in Tampa Bay's system and got scooped up by Posey in December. At 5'11" he's a bit small and got beat up early so his ERA is high — will he get a shot with the Giants?

    1. Most likely not a future Giants lineup but maybe one or two players make it.

    2. Jimenez has a 3.38 ERA since the end of April but it doesn't bode well for him that the Giants recently signed Scott Alexander.

    3. With Ramos and Lee @ 25 & 26 yo, respectively, and 4 of the 5 shown being OFers, there isn't much room to be future Giants!
      OTOH, if Meckler can play a passable 2B, Fitz doesn't have the position locked up, does he?.
      Doc, what do you think about Dayson Croes? (you covered his signing 5/9/2025).

      Is Croes a "find" like Bo Davidson, a guy far under the radar?

    4. Croes is 3 years older than Bo Davidson at the same level so the odds are against him. Too early to tell though.
