SF Giants Prospects Weekly Rundown: Triple-A

Notable Performers

Thairo Estrada: 6 G, 25 AB, .360 AVG, .968 OPS, 1 2B, 1 HR, 10 RBI, 4 BB, 2 K, 1 SB
Joey Bart: 4 G, 18 AB, .333 AVG, .813 OPS, 2 2B, 1 RBI, 0 BB, 7 K
Jaylin Davis: 5 G, 19 AB, .263 AVG, 1.023 OPS, 1 2B, 2 HR, 7 RBI, 4 BB, 10 K

Another week, another stellar performance from Thairo Estrada. It seems like it is now to be expected from him to perform well every single week, especially this week where there are a bunch of veteran Giants that are in their rehab assignments. Even though his defense in the dirt has been average at best, his bat definitely warrants some time in the big leagues.

Joey Bart is continuing to pound the drum towards a call back to the big league club with another strong week on both sides of the ball. He nabbed Jo Adell at second base as part of a double play alongside hitting .333 at the plate. His .248 ISO this season is the highest of his career since Rookie Ball and his wRC+ this season is at 133, proving that even in a hitter-friendly league, Bart’s bat is still well above-average.

Many fans remember Jaylin Davis‘ stellar stint in Sacramento a couple of years ago that led to a short stint in the big leagues. His prospect stock has fallen sharply since. However, his return to the team a couple of weeks ago and the subsequent hot week has proven that he’s taking small steps to regaining his lost stock. With the big league squad having an immense depth at the outfield position, Davis should have plenty of time in Sacramento to regain his confidence.
