LHP Carson Whisenhunt and OF Carter Howell were named pitcher and player of the month for the Northwest and California leagues.
The San Francisco Giants are getting major-league contributions from their latest crop of prospects earlier this season than most anybody expected thanks to the aggressive promotions of Casey Schmitt and Patrick Bailey, and they aren’t the only ones in the farm system who have moved quickly this season.
Left-hander Carson Whisenhunt, the 66th overall selection in the 2022 MLB draft, was named Pitcher of the Month in the High-A Northwest League, and outfielder Carter Howell, who signed for $50,000 out of Augustana University , was named Hitter of the Month in the Single-A California League. Drafted out of college with a changeup that is already considered major-league ready, Whisenhunt was thought to be a candidate to rise quickly. Howell, on the other hand, came with far less pedigree, a North Dakota native and Division II product who started his college career on the JV squad.
