Final Odds

At this point in the pre-draft process, every rumor brings increased uncertainty.

A week ago, it seemed like the pick was between Stott and Manoah, and that’s still the most likely outcome. However, if Bishop falls, he’s probably the best prospect available.

I think people are overlooking Missouri OF Kameron Misner as a realistic possibility as an under-slot sign if Bishop is off the board.

Farhan Zaidi notoriously loves toolsy players, and Misner has them all. He would be a stretch after a disappointing spring, but the Giants may be able to gain value back later in the draft if they cut a below-slot deal at No. 10 overall.

With all of that said, here are my final odds on who the Giants will select with the 10th overall pick:

  • SS Bryson Stott: 20 percent
  • RHP Alek Manoah: 20 percent
  • OF Hunter Bishop: 20 percent
  • OF Kameron Misner: 15 percent
  • RHP Jackson Rutledge: 10 percent
  • 3B Josh Jung: 5 percent
  • RHP Matthew Allan: 3 percent
  • 3B Keoni Cavaco: 2 percent
  • RHP George Kirby: 1 percent
  • IF Will Wilson: 1 percent
  • C Shea Langeliers: 1 percent
  • LHP Zack Thompson: 1 percent
  • Chaos: 1 percent

The 2019 MLB draft kicks off at 7 p.m. ET on MLB Network and MLB.com, with the first two rounds set to play out on Monday night.
