I'd rather see Flores at 1B. He's a better hitter and we have a lead off hitter now.

Luciano finished spring with arguably the hottest bat on the team, I can definitely see them trying to keep some momentum for him going. I can also see Ahmed starting.

There is some confusion over this. It hasn't been officially confirmed by people around the Giants. It may be best for him to start in AAA and get some extended playing time. On the other hand. he's not going to see the same level of pitching there. That's always an issue with young players. Many of them can tear it up in the minors but MLB pitching is a whole new animal.
Joey Bart, Nick Ahmed and Landen Roupp are on the Opening Day roster. Marco Luciano and Luis Matos were optioned to AAA. Pablo Sandoval has been released.

Here's the full Opening Day roster. Of note, Blake Snell is on it. He'll throw a minor league game tomorrow and could join rotation next week: pic.twitter.com/oEI37NFFvW
