The San Francisco Giants have until three hours before Saturday's game to set their roster for their NLDS match-up with the Cincinnati Reds, but manager Bruce Bochy decided to get it done early. Bochy is going with a full 12-man pitching staff, which is not unheard of. Some managers choose to take 11 pitchers and an extra bench player, but they have not yet decided if Ryan Vogelsong or Barry Zito will be the fourth starter.
