Former Giants prospect D.J. Snelten using social media to make comeback

SAN FRANCISCO -- D.J. Snelten remembers stepping into a big league clubhouse for the first time. He remembers meeting Buster Posey and chatting about pitching strategy with Nick Hundley. He remembers getting a call in the middle of the afternoon in Sacramento and being asked to drive to San Francisco to help a banged-up bullpen.

Oh, and he also remembers standing in front of a room of 60 professional baseball players and belting out "Plush" by the Stone Temple Pilots.

"At the beginning of spring they bring new guys up in front of the group and ask them questions and stuff like that," Snelten recalled over the phone recently, laughing.
