When the San Francisco Giants announced their eight players who would be playing in the Arizona Fall League this year, it included left-handed pitcher Carson Whisenhunt (along with right-handed pitchers Will Bednar, Hunter Dula, and Tyler Myrick, catchers Andy Thomas and Adrian Sugastey, first baseman Logan Wyatt, and center fielder Luis Matos).
But when the Giants players actually joined the Scottsdale Scorpions and started playing games, Whisenhunt was nowhere to be found, and right-handed pitcher Spencer Bivens had taken his place.
It was unclear why. Information on prospects is hard enough to come by as is, let alone this time of year.
