The San Francisco Giants have what most would call a thin farm system.
There is some intriguing top-tier talent, namely catcher Joey Bart and outfielder Heliot Ramos, but overall the system is lacking in future impact talent.
It comes as quite the surprise then that one of the top performers down on the farm so far this season was not even ranked among the team’s top 30 prospects to begin the year, according to MLB.com.
That fast-rising youngster is left-hander Conner Menez.
The Giants selected Menez in the 14th round of the 2016 draft out of The Master’s College, a small liberal arts school in Santa Clarita, California with less than 1,000 undergrads.
