Giants' flurry of signings don't add up to much

The Giants are set to report to camp early next week, with the first pitchers and catchers workout slated for the 12th followed by the positional guys getting their workouts underway a few days later on the 16th. A lot has transpired with the Giants' roster over the last handful of days, including perhaps the biggest splash of the offseason with the re-signing of Hunter Pence. In what has been an extremely quiet winter for the Giants up until this last week, Pence was easily the biggest asset to join (re-join actually) the team and we'll delve more into that shortly. However the 2019 AL All-Star was not the only player to join the team over the last ten days. Aside from Hunter, the Giants inked utility man 27 year-old Wilmer Flores to a 2 year/$6MM deal, an under the radar move that I really like. They also added 2019 AL Gold Glove second basemen Yolmer Sanchez and center fielder Billy Hamilton on minor league deals. These appear to be the Giants final significant additions
