SF Giants news: Bringing spring training to Oracle Park a good idea

This season will likely be unmatched in its uniqueness, but the San Francisco Giants still have a roster to solidify, and I think a return to SF is good for the overall evaluation.

Holding spring training in Arizona is a fun event. We get to see baseball in peak summer weather while watching players we have never seen before and drinking a beer on the lawn that sits directly behind the home run fences. We are so close to the action that we can talk to the outfielders in our normal voices.

Still, the arid Arizona climate along with the fast infield grass makes it difficult to evaluate hitters and pitchers.
