These rosters do not appear ot be 100% accurate, but they are a starting point.
Fresno
Roster | Fresno Grizzlies Roster
A whole bunch of new guys to the org in Fresno pitching staff this year. No one to get too excited about, though.
The hitters, though, are a different story.
Chris Stewart (did anyone else notice that he made the 40-man??) looks to be the starter with Williams as the primary backup. New addition Dashenko Ricardo is the 3rd catcher. This is a 20 year old kid, whom I assume the Giants picked up in one of the rule V drafts. His stats do not look very good, but a 20 year old Dominican Dandy could end up being a coup.
Crawford and Noonan are not listed on the roster, but I assume they are here. Gillaspie, Pill, Rohlinger and Burriss are all listed as on the squad. I am guessing that Noonan and Burriss will sharetime at 2B and Crawford will get the bulk at SS. Gillaspie SHOULD get the bulk at 3B, but I would not be surprised to see Rohly get some time there as well.
The outfield has Neal, Ford, Graham and Copeland. Not sure why Copeland is still with the org.
Richmond

The pitching staff looks pretty good... Maday, Tanner, Surkamp, Verdugo, Stoffel, Matos, Otero, Fitzgerald. That is a pretty talented group for AA.
Behind the plate, Monell moves up to Richmond to catch these guys and will be backed up by Lowenstein. Nice couple of guys there to keep an eye on. Monell could be pushing for a cup of coffee by the end of this year. He should push Whitey off the big squad next year (unless he is involved in a trade sometime this year, which is a big possibility).
We got a minor league FA to play 1B (Joe Koshansky) who is a HR or nothing type of guy, but he has MLB power. I seriously doubt he is anything more than a filler, though. If he were a real flier, he would be in Fresno. Culberson is at 2B and Schoop at short. I wonder if they intend to have Noonan repeat AA and rotate him and Culberson between 2B and SS? I have always heard that Schoop is not a prospect, so there is no reason to protect his playing time.
The outfield is pretty interesting. Kieschnick repeats AA, McBryde is demoted (pretty much cements his status as org depth) and JC Perez moves up to AA. Kieschnick and Perez are definitely guys to keep an eye on this year.
San Jose
Roster | San Jose Giants Roster
As always, SJ has the most interesting and exciting roster in the org. The pitching staff will have spot lights on them the whole season. Wheeler, Gloor, Marte and Hembree continue their progression, and Main and Correa try to make the org look good by trading for them.
The catching corps is stacked!! ToJo and Hector Sanchez!! I would not be surprised to see ToJo moved to 1B, but both of these guys are full of potential and could be BIG parts in trades to really help the big club out this year or next.
the infield has a few guys to keep an eye on as well. Dominguez at 3B and Jurica at SS could prove to be big additions to the org with good years. Dominguez is probably in a make-or-break year. Cavan, Liles and Anders have potential, but I do not see them as much more than org depth.
The Outfield. Um, ok, I am excited. Brown, Parker, Fairley and Lollis. Brown could be pushing Torres next year. Parker could be pushing Huff in '13. Fairley, if he "gets it" could be pushing everyone, he is that talented. Lollis appears to be a solid guy who could go either way. This is a talented group of guys.
General notes...
Where is Brock Bond? Where is Brandon Crawford? Where is Rafael Rodriguez? Where are the Dominican Dandies Sundrendy Windster and Carlos Willoughby? Noonan and Adrianza are hurt (Noonan only a couple weeks away and Adrianza a couple months away).
Dominguez, Main, Fairley, Noonan and Gillaspie are all battling for their major league baseball lives this season, so they really should be fighting hard this year.
