Giants manager Bruce Bochy said Friday that he’s going to look at Melky Cabrera in the leadoff spot.
Angel Pagan figures to be his primary competition. While Cabrera is coming off the better year, both players have a .333 career on-base percentage and Pagan has stolen at least 32 bases in each of the past two seasons. Bochy is also toying with the idea of using Cabrera in the third spot and sliding Pablo Sandoval down to fifth, but we hope it doesn’t come to that. As of now, Nate Schierholtz figures to start in one of the corner outfield spots while Aubrey Huff and Brandon Belt will compete for at-bats at first base.
