They Might Be SF Giants: Davidson Gets the Call and Makes an Immediate Impression
By Taylor Anderson ·
They Might Be SF Giants covers the last 7 days of action for the Giants farm system.
Davidson Steps Up to the Show
Six hits in 13 plate appearances at Sacramento to close out his Triple-A stint, then a contract selection on September 21 and a big league debut that turned some heads fast. Bo Davidson (MLB, LF, Rank: 8) wrapped up a week that covered both levels and delivered at each stop. The Sacramento portion included a double, two walks, and a hit-by-pitch across a small sample that fit neatly into his last 30 days at Triple-A: a .329/.386/.557 line across 88 plate appearances with four home runs, four doubles, a triple, and 14 RBI. His MLB line is three games and 11 plate appearances old, but the early returns are encouraging, and the Giants clearly saw enough to add him to the roster for the stretch run.
The full 2026 picture is genuinely strong across all three levels: .290/.361/.522 combined with 29 home runs, 26 doubles, 94 RBI, and 21 stolen bases in 560 plate appearances. For context, last year he posted 18 home runs across High-A and Double-A, so the power has taken a real step forward, not just a hot environment inflating things. He is a 50 hit tool with a 55 power grade, and the power is running ahead of that grade at the moment. The swing-rate profile is aggressive at 50.1 percent, and the 73 percent contact rate is the number worth watching against major-league breaking balls, particularly stuff below the zone and away from his pull side. The scouting projection is a second-division corner outfielder or bench bat depending on how the contact holds, and a 24-year-old who just hit .309/.389/.534 at Triple-A with genuine arm and speed utility gives that projection a real floor. The next few weeks in San Francisco will be a useful first data point on the big question.
Quick Hits
- Nate Furman (MLB, 2B, Rank: 42) · landed on the 10-day injured list September 16 with a right oblique strain, retroactive to that date. In the two weeks before the placement he went 0-for-12 across seven MLB games with four strikeouts. His Triple-A line at Sacramento this year reads .293/.377/.414 with seven home runs and 19 stolen bases across 468 plate appearances, a solid body of work that the oblique issue interrupted at the worst possible moment in a September audition.
- Duncan Davitt (MLB, RHP, Rank: 21) · was recalled from Sacramento on September 18 and has been solid in his Giants relief appearances, posting a 2.08 ERA across 4.1 MLB innings in two outings this season. His path to the big leagues this year ran through four different organizations' affiliated rosters, but the Giants clearly like what they see in this window.
