Giants' Logan Webb believes Seth Corry's prospect ranking is too low

Share

Giants pitching prospect Seth Corry isn't getting enough love, and fellow pitcher Logan Webb is not happy about it.

MLB Pipeline released their Top 100 prospects for the 2020 MLB season, and they have Corry ranked as the No. 99 prospect in all of baseball.

By most projections, that ranking appears to be high for Corry, but Webb thinks otherwise.

In case you're wondering who Corry is, he was the Giants' third-round draft pick in 2017. Selected out of Lone Peak High School in Utah, Corry had a breakout season with the Single-A Augusta GreenJackets in 2019.

Corry went 9-3 with a 1.76 ERA and a whopping 172 strikeouts in 122.2 innings for the Giants' full-season Class A affiliate. Those numbers helped Corry earn South Atlantic League Pitcher of the Year.

Before returning from a PED suspension at the beginning of the 2019 season, Webb made a pair of rehab starts for Augusta. That's likely where he got a good glimpse of Corry's potential.

While MLB Pipeline slotted Corry into their Top 100, Baseball America did not, so Webb should be happy that at least one publication is giving Corry some love.

Corry is one of five Giants' prospects in MLB Pipeline's top 100, along with catcher Joey Bart, shortstop Marco Luciano and outfielders Heliot Ramos and Hunter Bishop.

Regardless of Corry's prospect ranking, he is part of a group of prospects that will try to steer the Giants back to the postseason.

If Webb is right, one day Corry will be part of a Giants team full of stars.
