San Francisco Giants promote seven prospects and sign 20‑year‑old draft pick

The San Francisco Giants advanced seven of their top minor‑league players to the next level, including the organization’s two highest‑ranked prospects, 18‑year‑old infielder Josuar Gonzalez and 17‑year‑old outfielder Luis Hernandez. Both players posted strong statistics in the Arizona Complex League, with Gonzalez hitting .350/.460/.520 and Hernandez .295/.530, earning their promotions to Low‑A and Single‑A respectively.

In a separate move, the Giants completed a 16th‑round draft signing by adding Wake Forest switch‑hitter Dalton Wentz, a 20‑year‑old infielder, to the organization for a bonus of $585,000, using the last of their allotted bonus pool. The signing was praised as a valuable addition to the club’s farm system.

These actions reflect the Giants’ continued focus on rebuilding their prospect pipeline after a disappointing major‑league season.
