The 14th edition of the 2021 Willie McCovey Memorial Community Prospect List was a very close one, and we avoided a runoff by only four votes, which may or may not have come from the four alternate accounts I created to help us avoid a runoff. But as it is, 20-year old outfielder Jairo Pomares has been voted as the No. 14 prospect in the San Francisco Giants farm.
No. 14 is exactly where Pomares landed on this list a year ago, so it would seem that the community is rather consistent in their appraisals after a year without Minor League Baseball.
And if the voting for CPL #14 is any indication of how it will go in CPL #15, it looks like we’re headed for another player repeating their spot this year. But we’ll save that story for if it happens.
Let’s find out.
