Giants' farm system ranked in Keith Law's top 10 before 2020 MLB season

Share

Welcome to the top 10, Giants minor leaguers. San Francisco's farm system continues to be recognized, and the latest to do so is The Athletic's Keith Law. 

On Monday, Law released his farm system rankings for all 30 MLB teams and the Giants came in at No. 10 overall. This is the highest a pundit has ranked the Giants. Baseball America had the Giants at No. 14 last month.

Law isn't over-the-moon about one particular prospect in the Giants' farm system by any means, though. 

"I feel like the whole exceeds the sum of the parts here," Law wrote about the Giants' farm system. "Each individual Giants prospect of note has some significant risk of low or no return, but if you add them all up, there’s more than enough upside to start to feel optimistic about the Giants’ long-term future." 

The Giants' farm system is led by catcher Joey Bart, center fielder Heliot Ramos and shortstop Marco Luciano. Law ranked Bart No. 44 on his preseason top 100 list that he released last month. Ramos was No. 52, Luciano No. 58 and Giants prospect Hunter Bishop also was No. 87.

Bart has gone 6-for-10 with a homer and four runs scored in five big league spring training games this year. Ramos hit a two-run jack in big league camp on Friday, but also sustained a mild left oblique strain in the same game.
