"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 2020 Draft: Drew Bowser
Drew Bowser 3B, HS. B-R, T-R. 6'3", 190 lbs.
Drew Bowser is a member of the endangered species knows as the right-handed power hitter. There are a few of them in this draft class and he definitely holds his own in the power-potential department. He's a big guy who, despite some athleticism profiles as a corner IF. PG has him sticking at 3B while the Fangraphs Boys have him eventually moving to 1B, a very exclusive club to break into. Still, for a guy who shows very little weight shift in his swing, he generates an eye-popping 100 MPH exit velocity. The player development gurus must be salivating on that one! He's committed to Stanford which is traditionally tough to sign a kid away from. Not to diminish the value of a Stanford education, but that program is not exactly known for developing power hitters. Just sayin'
