Giants Select Pitcher Kaden Waechter with 55th Overall Pick

With their second-round choice, the Giants opted for another pitcher, Kaden Waechter, a right-hander out of high school. This selection continues a trend for San Francisco in the early stages of the draft, as they have prioritized pitching talent.

Waechter joins a growing contingent of young pitchers being brought into the Giants' organization. The team has clearly identified pitching as a key area to bolster their future roster.
