The San Francisco Giants need a new center fielder. That much is clear. There are plenty of great option available this winter too. Perfect, right? The Giants need to make a move there, but it needs to be a short-term move. Their long-term solution is already in-house, and that is Steven Duggar.
Duggar started off the 2016 campaign in San Jose. He hit the ball extremely well, and with much more power than anticipated. In 311 plate appearances, he posted a .284/.386/.462 slash-line with 9 homers. That earned him a very quick call-up to Richmond.
After a quick adjustment period in moving up to Richmond, he excelled.
