Five things we learned in the Giants’ tie: Dubón leaving no doubt, Gausman falls yet thrives, bubble players hit

PHOENIX — Minor league options are often a curse for a player on the roster bubble, but Mauricio Dubón may not be on the bubble much longer.

The do-it-all utility man has been one of the best all-around players in Giants camp this spring and while there’s room for growth in Dubón’s game, it looks like the team and the player would stand to benefit if the development takes place in the majors this season.

Error 0:

Dubón, 25, can play all around the diamond and while he committed a throwing error in his spring debut at third base on Friday in a 5-5 tie against the Brewers, his errant toss was plenty strong and wound up being too high for first baseman Wilmer Flores to corral.
