Lopez has appeared in just four Cactus League games so far, posting a 4.50 ERA with two strikeouts.

San Francisco already knows what they have in Lopez, so there is no need to overwork him during spring training. Despite the retirement of left-handed setup man, Jeremy Affeldt, Lopez will likely serve the same left-handed specialist role he has for the Giants since joining the club in 2010. Even though he posted a sparkling 1.60 ERA in 2015, he simply doesn't log enough innings (39.1 IP in 2015) to be a valuable ratio enhancer in standard leagues.
