Since the start of the complex leagues was moved earlier in the season and the draft moved later, they have settled into a pattern where the rosters are made up mostly of DSL graduates and rehabbing players from higher levels. Since most of the Giants 2024 draft prospects were college players they got assigned to to San Jose after an initial evaluation in camp.
Here is a summary of the top performers in the 2024 ACL:

Lisbel Diaz OF: .329

Ramon Peralta 2
Jose Ramos 2
Ryan Reckley 2B 2
Home Runs:
Walker Martin SS- 6
Lisbel Diaz OF- 4
Ryan Reckley 2B- 4

Alix Hernandez 58
Johan Rodriguez RHP 55
Jose Rengel LHP 47
Best Prospect:
Lisbel Diaz OF, Walker Martin SS, Rayner Arias OF.
I am calling it a tie for Best Prospect at the level. Diaz was not previously a heralded prospect but he batted .312 in the DSL last season and played this whole season at age 18. He got off to a slow start after a late season promotion to San Jose but finished the season strong. He's a lean, athletic looking player with room to fill out and already mashes the ball with regularity with a high percentage of XBH's. Martin was the Giants second round draft pick in 2023 and did not play last season. He struggled to hit for average but showed athleticism with flashes of power. Look for a breakout in 2025. Arias' season ended early again after mixed results. He has a huge ceiling but the injuries are starting to get worrisome. He needs a healthy season in 2025.
