9. Trevor McDonald RHP. DOB: 2/26/2001. 6'2", 200 lbs.
2023(A+): 3-1, 0.96, 37.2 IP, 9.32 K/9, 1.91 BB/9, GB/FB= 4.86.
McDonald was an above-slot HS draft pick in the 11'th round of the 2019 draft. He quietly moved up in the Giants prospect rankings and earned a 40-man roster add this last December. Per Fangraphs, he missed much of last season with AC joint and hammy issues but when he came back he pounded to zone with a sinking mid-90's FB with a cutter, curve and changeup to back it up. His K rates are average by today's standards but his walk rate is elite and his GB ratio is hyper-elite. We should see him in the AA Richmond box scores to start 2024. He needs to stay healthy.
