We’re 20 chapters into the 2023 Willie McCovey Memorial Community Prospect List, which means we officially have reached a top 20 in our rankings of the top San Francisco Giants prospects. Stop me if you’ve heard this one before, but the latest name on the list is a player who had a breakout 2022. It’s right-handed starting pitcher Landen Roupp, who makes his CPL debut as the No. 20 prospect in the system.
Roupp, who turned 24 towards the end of the season, was a 12th-round pick in the 2021 MLB Draft. He made a few brief appearances that year, but only pitched eight innings, so 2022 was our first real look at him.
