Giants Should Not Be Concerned With Top Prospect Struggling in Triple-A

As the season continues for the San Francisco Giants, the team is looking for some bright spots after what has been a disappointing second half of the year. 

Even though it doesn't feel like it was all that long ago that the Giants were a playoff contender, their hopes of making the postseason are now all but done. This was a team that showed a lot of promise and upside in the first half of the 2025 campaign but ultimately fizzled out. 

However, with success for half a season, there is reason to be optimistic about the future for San Francisco. Even though the trade to acquire Rafael Devers didn’t result in more wins this year, he figures to be a fixture of the lineup for a long time. 

Now, the Giants are going to start game planning what they think the roster could look like in 2026. With an improving farm system, the future does look a lot brighter under Buster Posey. Unfortunately, one of their top prospects who has flown through the system has struggled a bit. 

Zachary D. Rymer of Bleacher Report recently wrote about some of the struggles of the Giants' top prospect, Bryce Eldridge, in Triple-A. 

“He must first conquer Triple-A, which is instead mostly conquering him. He has a 33.3 K% overall in 43 games there, and he is also 6-for-40 since August 6.”
