Giants on verge of tying MLB record for most players used in a season

Summary

The San Francisco Giants are poised to tie the MLB record for most players used in a season as they face off against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Currently, the Giants have utilized 70 players, and if Zach Morgan plays during the remaining series, he will become the 71st player. San Francisco's roster turnover has stemmed from extensive injuries, leading to a dismal 65-94 record this season. The current roster lacks any Opening Day starters aside from utility player Christian Koss. Manager Tony Vitello aims to get Morgan on the field, potentially taking advantage of a situation involving an injury to infielder Osleivis Basabe.
