DrB's 2018 Giants Top 50 Prospects: #34 Logan Webb

Logan Webb, RHP.  DOB:  11/18/1996.  6'2", 195 lbs.  Drafted 2014 Round 4.

SS:  2-0, 2.89, 28 IP, 7 BB, 31 K, GO/AO= 2.47.

Webb's 2016 season with Augusta was cut short on June 6 when I believe he underwent Tommy John Surgery.  The Giants took it slow with him in his return assigning him to Salem-Keizer and using him out of the bullpen.  He had been a starter prior to that.  By the numbers, he came back stronger than before with stellar K and BB rates and an even better groundball rate which was quite good before.  The sample size was small, though.  Webb is still just 21 years old so has plenty of time to get back on the SP track and work his way up.  We'll see is he gets assigned to Augusta or San Jose.  Sleeper Alert!
