The Giants’ organization took a significant step forward in recent weeks.
At the minor-league level.
San Francisco, by trading relief pitchers Tyler Rogers, Camilo Doval and outfielder Mike Yastrzemski before MLB’s July 31 trade deadline, received eight players (seven prospects) that appear to have significantly improved its farm system in the eyes of some experts.
MLB.com’s Jim Callis, Sam Dykstra and Jonathan Mayo released their updated ranking of all 30 farm systems, and the Giants are on the rise.
18. San Francisco Giants
2025 preseason rank: 28
2024 midseason rank: 23
2024 preseason rank: 17
2023 midseason rank: 14
Top 100 Prospects: Bryce Eldridge, 1B (No. 13)
“The most improved system since our March rankings — up 10 spots from No. 28 — the Giants are loaded with young talent and poised to continue to climb,” MLB.com wrote. “Eldridge is raking in Triple-A at age 20, but many of their best prospects have starred in Rookie ball this year, including shortstops Josuar Gonzalez and Jhonny Level and right-handers Argenis Cayama, Keyner Martinez and Alberto Laroche. Outfielders are becoming a strength of the system, led by Bo Davidson (signed as a nondrafted free agent) and Dakota Jordan.”
While MLB.com has one Giants prospect (Eldridge) on its top-100 list, Baseball America has three San Francisco prospects (Eldridge, Gonzalez and Davidson) on theirs.
While the Giants continue to struggle mightily at the major-league level, their farm system at least is trending upward as the team continues to look toward the future.
