Giants invited OF Adam Shabala, RHP Joe Bateman, RHP Justin Hedrick, RHP Jeff Miller, RHP Billy Sadler, RHP Brian Wilson, LHP Jonathan Sanchez, C Todd Jennings, C Brian Munhall, INF Brian Buscher, INF Tomas de la Rosa, INF Kevin Frandsen, INF Derin McMains, INF Pablo Sandoval, INF Jake Wald, OF John Bowker, OF Brian Horwitz and OF Clay Timpner to spring training.
Shabala made his major league debut with the Giants last season, going 3-for-15 with four RBI. He’ll be a longshot candidate to win a spot as a reserve outfielder. Sadler, a reliever, has the best chance of any member of this group of making a real contribution.
