Grant McCray Called Up For Major-League Debut
3 months agoThe San Francisco Giants called up their 11th-ranked prospect Grant McCray for what would be his MLB debut on Wednesday. He'll start in centerfield and bat ninth. The 23-year-old began 2024 at Double-A where he slashed .210/.313/.420 with a 32.2% K% over 50 games. Despite not having eye-popping numbers, the former third-round draft pick was promoted to Triple-A where he saw an improved .272/.347/.471 slashline and a much-improved 25.4% K%. He's got some pop, swatting double-digit home runs each of the past three seasons (including 2024), but his calling card would be his 70-grade speed, stealing 43 bags in 2022 and another 52 in 2023. That could make him an intriguing option in deep leagues, although in most leagues the left-handed hitter is best left to the waiver wire for now.
