"When the Giants Come to Town..." is my blog intended to chronicle my thoughts on San Francisco Giants baseball. My special interest is in prospects and the farm system, but of course, will comment on all aspects of the San Francisco Giants. I will also comment on baseball in general, particularly from a fantasy baseball perspective. I hope you will find the site informative, and invite you to join in the discussion.

Scouting the 2015 Draft: Nick Plummer
Nick Plummer is probably the top true 5 tool player in the 2015 draft, at least at this point. He's a high schooler from Michigan. He's a bit on the short side at 5'11", 200 lbs with a strong, muscular physique. He B-L, T-L and plays CF. He is fast with a home-to-first time of 4.19 secs. Like more and more HS hitters, he appears to have an advanced approach to hitting. He made a name for himself this summer by leading off the Area Code Game with a HR to RF. Some scouts question about whether he will stick in CF. BA has him ranked #11 in its early draft ranking. Kiley McDaniel of Fangraphs has him at #16 and calls him a "quick twitch athlete with plus bat speed, above average raw power and lots of hard contact."
