Someone asked about projecting a Giants team for 2022.  That is very difficult because so much can happen in 3 years.  We know very few of the current MLB roster will be on the team in 2022.  I'll must say the Giants have built up a very respectable top tier of prospects made up of Joey Bart, Heliot Ramos, Marco Luciano and Hunter Bishop.  That seems like a pretty good group to build and dream on to me, Bart's and Ramos' recent struggles notwithstanding.
