David Villar, 28, is facing an uncertain future with the Giants as he is out of minor league options and is not expected to make the Opening Day roster. Currently behind Brett Wisely and Casey Schmitt, if Villar does not secure a spot, he will be designated for assignment. Despite enjoying a strong spring performance, he has struggled with consistent play in recent seasons. Giants' manager Bob Melvin noted that being out of options might benefit Villar, given his past challenges with roster blocks. Villar's prior performance includes significant success in the minors and a notable rookie season.
I don't view this spring any differently. I don't want to place any external pressure on myself. The only thing I can control is my performance.
It might not be the worst thing in the world for him to be out of options. He's been blocked here by multiple people in the past.
