Heliot, Roby and More Spring Training Standouts

Spring Training games are now fully online and it gives us Giants fans plenty of opportunities not just to flame guys like Kapler and Zaidi but also to see the young guns, also known as the prospects, in the flesh. While Spring Training records amount to nothing in terms of the grand scheme of things and player stat lines during Spring Training are highly skeptical because the level of competition is so sketchy, the Giants are still 5-3 nonetheless and this... does put a smile on my face. In case you are wondering, the Padres are 6-1 and the Dodgers are 6-2. Again, the record will not transpire to the regular season but I feel that it gives us a pretty good indication that those two teams are at it again in the NL West.

Back to the prospects, I am here to talk about some players that are worth noting in the recent Spring Training games. Not just prospects, but also I would like to talk about a big leaguer that I like.

Making Some Sense on the Spring Training Games

Ah yes, Spring Training. The sun basking the diamond and players are getting their reps in. It's always nice to see baseball back and for the Giants, another year to make the best fanbase on Twitter blurt out sarcastic to disappointing comments. A couple of Spring Training games in, and I think that it is time to put some things to context.

Prospect Reports for the 2017 Giants: Ramos, Gonzalez, Corry, G. Williams

Hello! I know it's still very early in the season but I feel it's time to whip out my full prospect reports for the Giants prospects because I feel I'm going to run out of time while I'm doing my thesis. I have put hundreds of hours watching tons of videos of prospects from various sources, recording MiLB broadcasts from the start of the 2017 season and rewatching it, looking at the finer details, comparing past to current videos. I hope you like reading my reports that I made for you kind reader even though I'm not a real scout. I wish I can do an audio file for a better way to say what I want to say on every prospect but I don't know how to upload one here on this site.

In my first set of reports, I'm going to start with the top 2017 draftees Heliot Ramos, Jacob Gonzalez, and Seth Corry and the breakout prospect for this season, lefty pitcher Garrett Williams. 

FanGraphs profiles will open upon clicking the prospect names.
