DrB's 2025 Giants Top 50 Prospects: #40 Ryan Vanderhei

 Ryan Vanderhei RHP.  DOB:  6/1/2001.  6' 6", 185 lbs.  Drafted 2023 Round 16(TCU).

2024(ACL):  0-0, 6.23, 8.2 IP, 11.42 K/9, 3.12 BB/9, 1.22 GB/FB.
2024(A):  2-3, 3.58, 37.2 IP, 8.84 K/9, 4.78 BB/9, 1.45 GB/FB.

Vanderhei did not appear in any pro games in his draft year.  His numbers are not too impressive, but he's got a tall projectable frame. I saw him pitch in Rancho Cucamonga. He showed a low 90's FB with a slider and changeup and was able to keep hitters off balance by mixing them.  He could stand to put some meat on his bones, get stronger and find more velocity.  He is an interesting prospect to follow as he moves up to A+.
