Kyle Harrison, a 21-year-old prospective pitcher, is expected to join the San Francisco Giants’ rotation during the 2023 season.\n<\/p>\n
Fans are eager for the left-hander’s major league debut from De La Salle Concord High School, who is considered the Giants’ best pitching candidate since Madison Bumgarner.<\/p>\n
For now, Harrison is being hailed industry-wide as a future rotation mainstay. This week, MLB.com made a top 10 list of potential left-handed pitchers, and Harrison was his #1.<\/p>\n
Ken Waldichuk of the A’s is third. Waldichuk pitched at St. Mary’s College, and the A’s acquired him from the Yankees on his deadline to trade him last year.<\/p>\n
Baseball America released its top 100 prospective list on Wednesday, and Harrison was ranked No. 38, up from No. 95 last year. 113 innings.<\/p>\n
The only other Giants prospect on the list is 37-year-old shortstop Marco Luciano.<\/p>\n
Five Giants prospects were on the list last year, including 71-year-old catcher Joey Burt (now in the major leagues), 73-year-old outfielder Luis Matos and 94-year-old Elliott Ramos.<\/p>\n
The A’s frontrunner, catcher first baseman Tyler Soderstrom, ranks 35th on Baseball America’s list, up from 92nd last year. The 21-year-old Soderstrom will be named a first-round pick in 2020, and in 2022 he will play for three farms with his team, including Triple-A Las Vegas, batting .267, 29 homers, and OPS. I scored .825.<\/p>\n
