BRYCE ELDRIDGE HAS GOLD GLOVE ASPIRATIONS AS HE BATTLES FOR GIANTS ROSTER SPOT

The infield drills at Scottsdale Stadium on Monday morning were a bit more animated than usual, as new Giants manager Tony Vitello teamed up with third base coach Hector Borg to hit the grounders while infield coach Ron Washington gave constant encouragement and advice. When the work was over, Washington made a beeline for young first baseman Bryce Eldridge, who had alternated reps with Rafael Devers.

The 21-year-old has always been confident, which makes sense given the fact that he has been the most dangerous hitter on the field in nearly every game he has ever played. Eldridge has the raw power to lead MLB in homers one day and the overall hitting talent to be an All-Star or MVP candidate, but his aspirations are just as grand on the defensive end.
