Giants Improve Defense and Pitching Depth
The Giants focus on strengthening defense and pitching depth this season with Young and Snyder likely to contribute. Analysts note offensively the infield lacks top-classers but expect improved run support if Carey recovers from illness. Cardinals look for hitting payoff with improving but unproven pitching. Reds favored to challenge, Dodgers and Braves hailed for stronger pitching. Weather updates from the South Florida circuit report rain delays affecting several spring games and ongoing pennant chatter in Tampa.
