Draft history, pt. 1

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


The Giants had the 19th pick in the 2017 draft and they selected 17-year old high-schooler Heliot Ramos. Only two players from that first-round group have 10+ career bWAR and they are Hunter Greene (#2) and Drew Rasmussen (#31). Both were college pitchers.

The Giants had the #2 pick in 2018 and they grabbed Joey Bart. Nico Hoerner (#24), Brice Turang (#21), Logan Gilbert (#14), Brady Singer (#18) and Shane McLanahan (#31) are the 10+ WAR leaders of the group. Hoerner was a SS at Stanford and Turang was a HS SS. The others were college pitchers.

In 2019 the Giants took ASU OF Hunter Bishop with the 10th pick. The 10+ WAR list from this group is Bobby Witt, Jr. (#2), Corbin Carroll (#16), Adley Rutschman (#1), CJ Abrams (#6), and Riley Greene (#5). All were HS picks except for Rutschman.

In 2020 the Giants took Patrick Bailey with the 13th pick. Garret Crochet (#11, college pitcher) and Peter-Crow Armstrong (#19, HS) are the only two to reach 10 WAR.

The only members of the 40-man roster drafted earlier than Ramos are Logan Webb (4th round, 2014) and Matt Gage (10th round, 2014). That’s why I started with Heliot. Currently Kyle Haines (Farm Director) and Michael Holmes (Scouting Director) run the draft. John Barr, former Scouting Director (2008-2018), is still with the club as an advisor. He was there for Buster Posey and Madison Bumgarner. Before him it was Matt Nerland (1999-2007). That’s when they nabbed Matt Cain and Tim Lincecum. Dick Tidrow was the Farm Director until 2005 and he was replaced by Bobby Evans (2006-2008) and then Fred Stanley (2009-2013). Haines came in 2014.

I’ll look at the 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025 first-round drafts in another post.
