Giants Prospect Notes

Post by Giants »

Waiting for Rumble/Cormier to start I thought I'd finally create this prospect thread. Mostly I want to call out Balbino Fuenmayor, who has suddenly learned how to hit. Check out his line in AA after being out of affiliated baseball last year:

NW Arkansas TEX AA 38 155 28 56 95 12 0 9 32 9 1 25 1 0 .361 .405 .613 1.018 1.08

This is the kind of production I was hoping Angel Villalona would have provided me when I picked him in that draft, but I'll take it. Fuenmayor is 25 now and has no defensive value, but if he can hit like that someone will find a place for him!

Meanwhile the only two studly performances out of my top 10 prospects right now are Rafael Devers .331/.366/.481 line as an 18 year old in Low-A, and Anthony Alford's .316/.450 (not a typo)/.432 line at Low-A in his first year of actually playing baseball full time. Pretty excited about those two bats, as well as Michael Kopech (2.83 ERA 3.37 FIP through 7 starts with 30 Ks in 28 innings). Holy shit is Greenville's roster loaded this year!
