Now that the dust has settled (they aren’t playing)… Here’s a career comp of our 2nd-tier hitting prospects (ie no Sandoval, Belt, Crawford, Posey) of the 21st century

1. Real ones remember Fred

2. I really thought Fred Lewis was going to be a mainstay/star with the Giants.

3. I was like DAM DUFFY HIT ALMOST 10 WAR IN 1 SEASON?!

   

4. Matt Duffy…

   

5. Man. I loved panik, Duffy, and Lewis. Definitely thought Lewis was gonna be a star

6. Duffy almost won ROTY and Panik was an all star iirc

7. I remember when Fred Lewis hit the cycle. Also I’m surprised paniks career average is below .270

8. Panik was on a major upward trajectory, then got hurt and was never the same.

9. I will die on the hill that the franchise hasn’t been the same since the Matt Duffy trade.

10. Forever Giant…🐱🥲

    

11. Adam Duvall should probably be in this mix, no?

12. I really thought Panik was going to be a perennial All-Star. That double play in the World Series will live on forever though

13. You forgot Brett Pill…

14. What did Nate Schierholtz do to get removed from this list?

15. My dad said Fred was going to be the next Giants goat. In a way, he was.

16. I wish Panik could’ve stuck around a bit longer. I got to see Duffy with the angels in Texas a few years ago.

17. Missing John Bowker

18. Great group of guys

19. I know Panik was never particularly hyped as a prospect, but he was still a first round pick, so kind of borderline if he belongs here. Would have loved to see what his and the Duffman’s careers might have looked like with some better health luck.

20. Tommy Joseph looks about 55 years old in that photo.

21. No John Bowker?

22. What no John Bowker?!

23. How the fuck did u leave off forever Giant Pedro Feliz?

24. Fred Lewis mentioned! Thought he was the future of baseball as a kid…
