"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.

DrB's 2020 Giants Top 50 Prospects: Honorable Mention(Part 4)
Javeyon Williams OF. DOB: 6/27/1997. B-L, T-L. 5'9", 160 lbs.
Rookie(AZL): .286/.369/.333, 7 2B, 18 SB, 8.8 BB%, 21.2 K%
Nice pro start for the speedster. Gotta prove it at higher levels as a college draftee. Again, Giants have an OF logjam in the lower minors.
*********************************************************************************
Najee Gaskins OF. DOB: 9/7/1997. B-R, T-R. 6'0", 185 lbs.
Rookie(AZL): .340/.474/.453, 8 2B, 2 3B, 19 SB, 14.9 BB%, 14.2 K%, 134 PA.
Another speedster with nice peripherals(except power) but at a low level for a college draftee.
*********************************************************************************
Sam Selman LHP. DOB: 11/14/1990. 6'3", 190 lbs.
AA: 0-0, 0.00, 7 IP, 16.71 K/9, 1.29 BB/9.
AAA: 3-2, 2.06, 48 IP, 8.71 K/9, 3.00 BB/9.
MLB: 0-0, 4.35, 10.1 IP, 8.71 K/9, 5.23 BB/9.
Finally made his MLB debut after years of toiling in the minors with mixed result. Borderline stuff, but it plays approximately equally against RH and LH batters.
*********************************************************************************
Enderson Franco RHP. DOB: 12/29/1992. 6'2", 180lbs.
AAA: 6-5, 5.97, 113 IP, 7.81 K/9, 2.87 BB/9.
MLB: 0-0, 3.38, 5.1 IP, 6.75 K/9, 1.69 BB/9.
Labored as a SP in an extremely challenging environment for pitchers. FB picked up a few ticks when he was moved to bullpen which earned him a callup. Held his own with impressive stuff at MLB level.
*********************************************************************************
Joe McCarthy OF. DOB: 2/23/1994. B-L, T-L. 6'3", 220 lbs.
AAA(Rays): .196/.335/.385, 6 2B, 2 3B, 6 HR, SB, 15.9 BB%, 29.7 K%, 182 PA.
AAA(Giants): .165/.247/.241, 3 2B, HR, 9.0 BB%, 33.7 K%, 89 PA.
Giants seem to see something in McCarthy despite abysmal numbers in an extremely hitter-friendly environment. Remains to be seen how long he'll last in The Churn.
Sam Selman has a job-to-lose as a LH reliever. See if the new coaching crew can get his BB/9 under control (confidence?).
