Spring updates

Ideally the Giants will platoon in centerfield with Austin Slater and Mike Yastrzemski. Unfortunately Slater was shut down with "right elbow neuritis" and will not hit or throw for a week. Let's hope he's back to full health soon. Yaz was scratched on Tuesday with a sore knee but it's not seen as serious. Luis González is also out for 4-6 weeks with a back strain. The outfield situation looks a little more fluid than before but it is too soon to tell if the Giants will need to make a move. FNGs Michael Conforto and Mitch Haniger are not projected to play center and Conforto is coming off shoulder surgery and has not seen time in the field yet.
