, who is headed for Double-A but will remain in camp to provide an extra catcher for the final two exhibition games.
That leaves 30 players vying for 28 spots, and Tommy La Stella might also start the season on the I.L. Two notable decisions remain. With two extra roster spots through April, the Giants could start with 15 pitchers, which would include every 40-man-roster pitcher still in camp. Martinez got a late start to his spring and it's unclear when he'll be ready, but carrying 15 rostered pitchers would allow Tyler Beede, John Brebbia and Sam Long to break with the club.
The staff also needs to decide how many of the eight healthy infielders left in camp will be there on opening day. The Brandons, Wilmer Flores and Thairo Estrada are locks, and La Stella will be if his Achilles is deemed up to speed. That leaves Mauricio Dubon, Jason Vosler and Luke Williams, with Dubon a frontrunner because he's out of minor league options.
