SF Giants Prospects Weekly Rundown: Triple-A

Notable Performers

Heliot Ramos: 7 G, 22 AB, .273 AVG, .838 OPS, 3 2B, 3 RBI, 6 BB, 7 K, 2 SB
Will Toffey: 5 G, 12 AB, .333 AVG, 1.050 OPS, 1 HR, 2 RBI, 2 BB, 6 K
Bryce Johnson: 7 G, 15 AB, .400 AVG, 1.140 OPS, 1 2B, 1 HR, 5 RBI, 3 BB, 4 K

After getting called up to the River Cats on July 21, Heliot Ramos has shown that he’s up to the task. The Puerto Rican is currently rocking a four-game hitting streak where he’s 6-17 with three doubles to his credit. It is a bounce-back month for the 21-year old after struggling very hard in June, and the front office rewarded his effort with this promotion. For someone who is almost six years younger than the average competition, Heliot looks like he belongs.

With several Giants veterans doing their rehab stints in Sacramento this week, it limited the playing time of Will Toffey. When Toffey played though, he looked pretty good on the field, displaying an ability to defend multiple positions and did not look bad at the plate. There’s little chance that he gets called up to the big league club this season as the Giants have their sights set on winning the division, but he is showing positive development.

After struggling for the past month and a half, Bryce Johnson put up what was arguably his best game this season on July 24th, where he went 4-5 with a walk, a double, a home run, and 4 RBI. It was the bulk of his production this week but it was a very memorable one. Like Toffey, it’s unlikely to see him in the big leagues this year but it’s nice to see him continue to get good playing time.
