2025 Fantasy Outlook
Control woes continue to plague the Giants' top pitching prospect in 2024. Whisenhunt started 25 games for Triple-A Sacramento, registering an impressive 28.4 percent strikeout rate, but he also logged a generous 11.3 percent walk rate. The 24-year-old southpaw throws a 93-mph sinker, cutter, slider and change-up (which is his best pitch). Metrics like BABIP are unreliable in the Pacific Coast League, but the .369 mark Whisenhunt recorded last season is inflated. The lefty will likely open the year back with the River Cats, ostensibly working on throwing strikes. Last year, 63.7 percent of his pitches were strikes, but since the major league average was 64.3 percent, a modest improvement could put him in the mix for a rotation spot with the Giants. Considering only Logan Webb has a reliable track record, Whisenhunt could force the issue. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a $1.87 million contract with the Giants in July of 2022.
Set for major-league debut
Whisenhunt is expected to be called up from Triple-A Sacramento and start Monday's contest versus the Pirates, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis
Whisenhunt is geared up to make his major-league debut. The 24-year-old has posted a 4.42 ERA and 1.34 WHIP with 86 strikeouts over 97.2 innings in 18 starts at Triple-A this season. With an impressive outing, Whisenhunt could stick with the major-league roster moving forward.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Promotion possible
According to Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area, Whisenhunt is a candidate to enter the Giants' starting rotation after Justin Verlander was placed on the injured list Thursday due to a pectoral injury.
Analysis
San Francisco will have a gap in the rotation Saturday in Washington, with Jordan Hicks and Kyle Harrison the leading candidates to step in. However, Whisenhunt is the organization's top pitching prospect still in the minors, and it would be an opportunity to bring him up for his MLB debut. The left-hander has made nine starts for Triple-A Sacramento this season and has a 3.00 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 52:7 K:BB across 51 innings. The Giants seem likely to turn to a more experienced rotation option, however.
