As the San Francisco Giants season approaches, the completion of the 2025 Willie McCovey Memorial Community Prospect List is imminent, highlighted by catcher Yohendry Sanchez, the final player in the top 40. Sanchez, a significant addition to the Giants' 2024 international signing class, faced an injury-limited debut season, playing only 12 games. His strong offensive stats, including a .937 OPS and 164 wRC+, contrast sharply with high strikeout and low batting averages, raising concerns about his long-term viability as a catcher. The prospect list is almost finalized, with Sanchez's performance and health dictating his immediate future.
