The Giants will look different at the hot corner as Pablo Sandoval opted to leave the Bay Area as he signed with the Boston Red Sox.
San Francisco finished 88-74 last season and in second place in the NL West en route to notching its third World Series crown in five years. The Giants toppled the Pittsburgh Pirates in the wild-card game, the Washington Nationals in the NLDS, the St. Louis Cardinals in the NLCS and the AL champion Kansas City Royals in the World Series in a thrilling Game 7.
Arizona, meanwhile, finished in last place in the NL West with a 64-98 record, missing the playoffs for the third straight campaign.
The NL West is likely to be a tough division this season as the Dodgers have the pitching depth to win it all and the Padres made vast improvements over the offseason. The Giants are known to come out of nowhere to win it all while the Diamondbacks and Colorado Rockies are projected to be bottom dwellers.
Two NL West rivals battle it out on Opening Night when the Diamondbacks host the Giants live from Chase Field in Arizona.
