The San Francisco Giants believe that Bryce Eldridge is their future at first base. The Giants' top overall prospect wrapped up his first week at Double-A Richmond on Sunday, as he got a late start on the season due to a left wrist injury he suffered during spring training. In Richmond's final game of the week, he went 1-for-4 with an RBI, a run, a strikeout and a walk. Aside from a home run that announced his start of the season, it was a sluggish week for one of the best hitting prospects in the game.

The San Francisco Giants are off to one of the best starts they have had in franchise history, putting together an 18-10 record, which has led them to first place in a strong National League West. While the team has made some key additions, and has had some high level players return from injury, they have also seen steps up from their young players as well. One of the most notable steps taken has been relief pitcher Randy Rodríguez, who has been spectacular throughout the first part of the 2025 season. This was a promising showing from a 24-year old rookie, and the strikeout numbers gave fans something to be excited about with him long-term.

The San Francisco Giants have been heavily investing into their offense over past couple of years and this draft could be yet another case of that same thing. Bleacher Report's Joel Reuter recently posted his latest 2025 MLB mock draft. In it, the Giants selected Tennessee Volunteers shortstop Dean Curley with the No. 13 overall selection. Curley has had a great season with the Volunteers, posting a .302/.429/.547 slash line with 11 home runs and 34 RBI.
