Carson Whisenhunt Yet To Pitch In AFL Due To Illness
2 years agoSan Francisco Giants left-hander Carson Whisenhunt (illness) has yet to pitch in the Arizona Fall League because he's still ramping up after 10 days off when he was placed on the COVID-19 list. Whisenhunt is expected to be pitching in his first AFL game within a week. The 22-year-old southpaw is the team's No. 7 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, and has thrown just 7 2/3 professional innings after being taken with the 66th overall pick in this year's draft. He made just two starts for Single-A San Jose in 2022, allowing no runs on five hits while walking one and striking out seven in just 4 2/3 innings pitched. In his 7 2/3 total frames, Whisenhunt didn't allow a single run while striking out 14 and walking just one.
