Marco Luciano News
The San Francisco Giants recalled infield prospect Marco Luciano from Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday after they placed catcher Patrick Bailey (head) on the seven-day concussion list for the second time in the month. Luciano, the club's top prospect per MLB Pipeline, was hitting .266 (34-for-128) with a home run, 20 RBI, three stolen bases and 20 runs scored in 34 games for Sacramento at the time of his call-up. It's unclear exactly how much Luciano will play, but he should at least get a shot to see some starts at the 6 with Nick Ahmed (wrist) currently on the 10-day injured list. Casey Schmitt got the start at shortstop for the Giants on Tuesday night. Luciano is attractive in dynasty/keeper leagues for his high-end bat speed and plus raw power to all fields, but he'll need to improve his plate discipline. In his first 14 big-league games last year, Luciano hit 231 (9-for-39) with no homers, six walks and 17 strikeouts in 45 plate appearances.
San Francisco Giants shortstop prospect Marco Luciano tallied three RBI en route to Tuesday's victory, increasing his season total to 13. After getting a small taste of the major leagues last season, the Giants sent down the 22-year-old to continue his development in Triple-A. Luciano has performed well early in the season, posting a .303/.419/.382 slash line with six extra-base hits and three stolen bases. Luciano is expected to return to the major leagues later in the summer and is worth keeping an eye on in deeper re-draft formats.
San Francisco Giants shortstop prospect Marco Luciano has been off to a hot start for Triple-A Sacramento. The 22-year-old was with the team this spring in the Cactus League, but struggled and was demoted to Triple-A to get more seasoning. He has always had a strong glove, but his hitting has needed to catch up and that hasn't been a problem early on in the season. In his first eight games, Luciano has hit a sparkling .375 with three doubles, four RBI, nine walks and 11 strikeouts. The near 1:1 walk to strikeout ratio is important as Luciano has been prone to doubling his strikeout to walk rate historically. Despite his aggressiveness, Luciano has very good bat speed and can hit for power with double-digit homers in all four of his professional seasons. If Luciano can become a more patient hitter, he has all the tools to help fantasy managers. For now, he is best served in dynasty leagues.
