DrB's 2019 Giants Top 50 Prospects: Honorable Mention Part 7

Bruce Bochy announced 2019 will be his last as a field manager.  No big surprise there.  I'll offer my thoughts later.  While we continue to wait for Bryce, let's plow on through the HM's.

Marco Gonzalez, LHP. DOB:  12/8/1997.  6'1", 180 lbs.  International FA, 2015.

2018 R(AZL):  3-7, 6.28 ERA, 57.1 IP, 8.63 K/9, 2.20 BB/9, 4.35 FIP, 3.87 xFIP.

Peripherals enough to keep him going.

Jasier Herrera, RHP.  DOB:  1/1/1998.  6'5", 190 lbs.  International FA, 2014.

2018(AZL):  1-4, 3.88 ERA, 55.2 IP, 7.92 K/9, 2.43 BB/9, 1.38 GB/FB.

Decent numbers. Intriguing height.

*********************************************************************************

Jacob Lopez, LHP.  DOB:  3/11/1998.  6'4", 220 lbs.  Drafted 2018 Round 26.

2018 R(AZL):  1-1, 1.42 ERA, 25.1 IP, 12.08 K/9, 2.13 BB/9. 1.67 GB/FB.

Nice pro debut for JC draftee.

*********************************************************************************

Ben Madison, RHP.  DOB:  9/15/1997.  6'3", 205 lbs.  Drafted 2018, Round 9.

2018 R(AZL):  0-0, 3.38 ERA, 16 IP, 12.94 K/9, 5.06 BB/9, 3.86 GB/FB.

Terrific K and GB rate but too many BB's in a SSS.

*********************************************************************************

Chris Roberts, RHP.  DOB:  7/3/1997.  6'0", 210 lbs.  Drafted 2018 Round 35.

2018 R(AZL):  2-1, 2.45 ERA, 22 IP, 13.91 K/9, 5.73 BB/9, 4 Saves.

Intriguing K/9 at a low level.

*********************************************************************************

Julio Rodriguez, RHP.  DOB:  2/10/200.  6'3", 180 lbs.  International FA 2017.

2018 R(AZL):  3-1, 2.20 ERA, 16.1 IP, 8.27 K/9, 6.06 BB/9, 2.56 GB/FB.

National attention for spin rate on curveball.  Interesting to see how that translates at higher levels and larger samples sizes.
