For those who didn’t see, Baseball America released their Giants’ Top 10 yesterday and it was much like ours — until it wasn’t!
- Joey Bart
- Marco Luciano

- Sean Hjelle
- Logan Webb
- Gregory Santos
- Alexander Canario
- Luis Toribio
- Jake Wong
Beyond the rankings, they also included some system best tools (in the print edition) which were fascinating as well. Lots more Toribio sightings (including Best Hitter for Average incredibly enough) a bunch of PJ Hilson, and some Manuel Geraldo presence! Why there was even a Richgelon Juliana shoutout (Best Defensive OF). If I may bottom line their POV: If you’re a Giants’ prospect who played in full season ball last year, BA’s scouting reports probably don’t look too kindly on you!
With that said, Lets take a look at our updated candidates. Click on first name to go to BB-Ref, and last name to go to Fangraphs.
We’re down to four contestants again which means it’s time for nominations! I’ll try very hard to put in a nominations post at the top (if I can get near a computer at post time) and then everybody should reply to that post with their nominations. As always, top four REC getters will be added to the next list.
