5 San Francisco Giants Players Who Impressed in 2018 Spring Training

5) Brandon Belt
The analytics guys love him, but some fans can’t stand him.
Either way, Belt is having a very strong spring training as he tries to come back from reoccurring concussion symptoms.
The Giants have slow-played many of their veterans, but that’s not the case with Belt. Since he has missed so much time over the last couple of seasons with concussions, Bruce Bochy wants to give him as many at-bats as possible.
And he has not disappointed.
Coming into Sunday’s game, he hit .396 this spring, with three home runs, 11 RBI, and a .708 slugging percentage in 48 at-bats. His OBP is an impressive .483.
Since Belt is so good at getting on base, and has been even in his down years, the Giants will try him as a two-hitter against righties this season.
Last year, in a shortened-season, he hit .241 but had an OBP of .355. He did have 18 home runs in 382 at-bats.
A healthy Belt could make the Giants one of the best lineups in the National League.
