Giants Reassign Carson Whisenhunt To Minor-League Camp
1 day agoThe San Francisco Giants have reassigned their top pitching prospect Carson Whisenhunt to minor-league camp. The former second-round draft pick made two appearances for the Giants this spring, throwing three innings of scoreless ball while yielding one hit, no walks, and striking out two. The 6-foot-3 hurler registered a 5.42 ERA in his first taste of Triple-A last year but struck out 135 batters in 104 2/3 innings, good for an 11.61 K/9. However, a high walk rate led to just a 17.2 percent K-BB%. The southpaw has an 80-grade changeup that Giants fans would surely like to see in the majors, but for now, they'll have to wait. Assuming the 24-year-old starts off well in 2025, it wouldn't be surprising to see him knocking on the door to the majors by midseason. With the strikeout potential, redraft managers should stay vigilant for any indications of a call-up.
