McCray had been competing for a roster spot following the injury to Jerar Encarnacion. He'll be a candidate to be called up from Triple-A at some point this season.

Grant McCray could fill in at center field for the Giants if Jung Hoo Lee (back) starts on the IL, per team updates, with a strong spring showing.

McCray’s .275 average, 1 homer, 4 RBI, and 4 steals in 22 Cactus League games position him to step up if Lee’s back delays his Giants debut. His 56 strikeouts in 130 plate appearances last year are a focus. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues should roster him, banking on his speed and contact gains for early value in San Francisco.
