On today's "Friday Focus", we're looking at three specific position groups in three specific systems. For the San Francisco Giants, they're loaded with pitching but we want to talk about their infielders: They have three top ten infielders, and 3B Casey Schmitt is a better defender than either SS Marco Luciano or SS Aeverson Arteaga? What kind of roster flexibility does that give San Francisco moving forward?

In Chicago, the Cubs are giving RHP Hayden Wesneski a MLB roster spot on Opening Day, but we're also watching for two new pitchers in the system - RHP Cade Horton and LHP Jackson Ferris - to see what this pitching development staff can do with their arsenals.

And in Arlington, OF Anthony Guiterrez of the Rangers might have a "Jackson Chourio"-type ascension through the minors in 2023.
