With the 20th chapter of the 2022 Willie McCovey Memorial Community Prospect List in the books, we’ve officially created a list of the top 20 prospects in the San Francisco Giants organization. Rounding out the top 20 is 22-year old catcher Ricardo Genovés, who earned 26% of the votes in a six-name field.
Genovés, a right-handed hitter, started 2021 in Low-A and dominated, slashing .338/.441/.551 (161 wRC+) in 161 plate appearances, with 6 home runs, 22 walks, and 29 strikeouts. That earned him a promotion to High-A, where he struggled a little, hitting .217/.294/.364 (77 wRC+) in 245 plate appearances, with 7 home runs, 22 walks, and 73 strikeouts.
