2025 End-Of-Season farm system rank: #20
Jeremy Mahy’s organization take from our 2025 End-Of-Season Farm System Rankings:
@MKelley_ND called the Giants system “sneaky good” thanks to six to eight guys right off the bat that are solid prospects. Bryce Eldridge looks to break camp with the Giants and gives them a legitimate power source. Bo Davidson had a breakout 2025 season and Drew Gilbert was a nice trade deadline acquisition.

2026 International Signing: Luis Hernandez, SS (Venezuela) – $5M. Not included in the Top 50 rankings below. Would likely be slotted high Tier 4, or potentially lower Tier 3. He’ll show up in our next Giants prospects update.

Prospects1500 Tiers:
Tier 1: Players with high expectations of both making the majors and playing at an All-Star level for a number of years
Tier 2: Players with an above-average expectation of making the majors and being a solid contributor
Tier 3: Players with an average expectation of making the majors and being a solid contributor
Tier 4: Players who have the potential to make the majors; possible sleeper candidates for sustained MLB success
Tier 5: Players of interest, worth keeping an eye on, who may make (or have made) the majors but provide minimal impact

Levels listed for each player are the highest levels player reached in 2025

Tier 1

1. Bryce Eldridge, 1B, 21, MLB
Eldridge was drafted in 2023 out of James Madison High School in Vienna, Virginia. Though selected as a two-way player, it quickly became clear the Giants wanted him focused on hitting. For dynasty owners, the upside is hard to miss. He’s an athletic 6’7” left-handed bat who won’t turn 22 until the end of the season. Last year, he launched 25 home runs across Double-A and Triple-A, though the power came with swing-and-miss, as he struck out 127 times in 426 plate appearances. A brief late-season call-up to the majors exposed those contact issues, but the small sample did little to dampen expectations in San Francisco. Eldridge has a clear path to open the season as a first base or DH option, and even if contact concerns push him back to Triple-A out of spring training, his age, athleticism, and power profile suggest he won’t be there long before contributing at the big-league level.

Tier 2

None

Tier 3

2. Josuar Gonzalez, SS, 18, Rookie (DSL)
3. Jhonny Level, SS, 18, Single-A
4. Gavin Kilen, SS/2B, 21, Single-A
5. Bo Davidson, OF, 23, Double-A
6. Drew Gilbert, OF, 25, MLB
7. Dakota Jordan, OF, 22, Single-A

Gonzalez is a fast-rising, switch-hitter known for his elite strike zone awareness, blazing speed, and sneaky power. He has a real shot to be the team’s starting shortstop by 2029. Level, also a switch-hitter with plus tools and power potential, struggled after a promotion to Single-A where he slashed .236/.333/.339/.672 over 147 plate appearances. Still, he remains a high-upside talent. Kilen saw a power uptick throughout his college career, and improved it from a true weakness to a fringe average tool. Add to that a potential plus hit tool and middle infield actions and you know exactly why he heard his name called in the middle of the first round last July. Davidson boasts a .295 average and .907 OPS over 200+ minor league games. While his bat cooled after being promoted to Double-A, his power-speed combo gives him the chance to be a fantasy contributor in multiple categories. Gilbert was traded from the Mets to the Giants at the deadline and Oracle Park is never an upgrade for a lefty bat. He struggled with consistency at Triple-A and in his MLB debut, which makes 2026 a pivotal year to prove he can be an everyday big leaguer. Jordan is freakishly athletic with 70-grade speed, plus raw power, and “Baby Bo” Jackson hype from scouts. He’s coming off a .311/.377/.497 season with 27 steals. Dynasty owners should pounce now.

Tier 4

8. Luis De La Torre, LHP, 22, Single-A
9. Blade Tidwell, RHP, 24, MLB
10. Jacob Bresnahan, LHP, 20, Single-A
11. Keyner Martinez, RHP, 21, Single-A
12. Carson Whisenhunt, LHP, 25, MLB
13. Jesús Rodríguez, C, 23, Triple-A
14. Daniel Susac, C, 24, Triple-A
15. Joe Whitman, LHP, 24, Double-A

The lefty De La Torre is coming off an impressive Rookie ball/Single-A season in which he started 15 games (18 appearance), threw just over 74 innings and punched out 109 batters (13.2 K/9). Let’s see if he can duplicate a very good 2.78 ERA if he moves up to High-A this year. Tidwell came over from the Mets and pitched very well in four games for Sacramento. He’s competing with a lot of arms for a shot at the Giants rotation but projects to start 2026 back in Triple-A. Bresnahan doesn’t have anything left to prove in Single-A and the 20-year-old should be en route to High-A Eugene coming out of Spring Training. His 2025 statline was awesome – 9 wins, 2.61 ERA, and 12.0 K/9 over 93 IP (124 K). Whisenhunt has dropped slightly in our rankings, mostly stemming from his less-than-stellar MLB debut in 2025. The 2022 second round pick still looks to be a big part of the MLB rotation in 2026. Rodriguez and Susac, two catcher prospects, are new to the Giants farm system, coming from New York (AL) and the Athletics respectively. One of them will be backing up Patrick Bailey, while the other one starts at Triple-A. (@Scotty_Ballgame)

19. Carlos Gutierrez, OF, 21, Single-A
20. Yunior Marte, RHP, 22, Single-A
21. Trevor McDonald, RHP, 24, MLB
22. Walker Martin, 3B/SS, 21, Single-A
23. Reggie Crawford, LHP, 25, Injured (Triple-A in 2024)
24. Rayner Arias, OF, 19, Single-A
25. Diego Velasquez, 2B, 22, Double-A
26. Maui Ahuna, SS, 23, High-A
27. Josh Bostick, RHP, 24, High-A
28. Lorenzo Meola, 2B/SS, 22, Single-A
29. Jakob Christian, 1B/OF, 23, High-A

37. Reid Worley, RHP, 19, High school
38. Drew Cavanaugh, C, 23, Triple-A
39. Sabin Ceballos, 3B, 23, Double-A
40. Scott Bandura, OF, 24, Double-A
41. Yulian Barreto, 2B, 18, Rookie (DSL)
42. Jack Choate, LHP, 24, Double-A
43. Aeverson Arteaga, SS, 22, Double-A
44. Carlos De La Rosa, LHP, 18, Rookie (DSL)
45. Logan Martin, RHP, 24, High-A
46. Hunter Dryden, RHP, 23, Single-A
47. Robert Hipwell, 1B/3B, 22, Single-A
48. Jean Carlos Sio, 2B/SS, 21, High-A
49. Anthony Marquez, SS/2B, 19, Rookie (DSL)
50. Jose Astudillo, OF/2B, 21, Single-A

Cayama made a strong impression in the ACL in 2025, but his 14 inning Single-A stint to finish the season was not pretty. He is just 19 years old so there will be some development pains, but he has an intriguing arsenal. Cohen, the Giants’ third-round pick last July, displayed elite contact skills in college and could be one to keep an eye on next season. Marte, who was acquired from the Royals last season, has the frame (6’5”) to hold up to a starters workload and the arsenal to be affective against both handed batters. Crawford, formerly a two-way player, has solely switched to pitching and the southpaw has two potentially plus pitches in his fastball and sinker which both touch triple digits. He has the potential to be a late inning weapon. Injuries have disrupted Arias’ development each season which has led to struggles in swing decisions so far. He has the size and strength you want, but the results just haven’t been there yet. Barreto looked great in the DSL last year posting a .436 wOBA with more walks than strikeouts. His stateside debut will be one I am keeping an eye on. De La Rosa was one of the prospects acquired in the Doval trade with the Yankees. The 18-year-old lefty is a long ways from the big leagues but has a big fastball and impressive command so far in his young career. Martin has some of the best exit velocity in the system and has the potential to be an impact bat, but the hit tool is still in need of refinement. (@JMahyfam)
