One of the most underrated prospects in the farm
Scott Bandura is reportedly getting the call to the #SFGiants per @JohnSheaHey.
The outfielder has been worthy of a promotion for a few weeks now and has mashed this year, with a .320 AVG, .895 OPS, and 137 wRC+ between AA/AAA.

All glory to God. None of this would be possible without His plan and the countless blessings He's placed in my life.
With that, I'm incredibly excited to announce my commitment to continue my academic and baseball career at Villanova University.
Thank you to my parents for every sacrifice, every ride, and every ounce of support along the way. I wouldn't be where I am today without you.
I'd like to thank my coaches and teammates at St. Francis Prep who have supported, challenged, and believed in me throughout this journey. I'm grateful for every lesson, every game, and every memory.
Grateful to have @mvp_coach7 and @mr_bautista21 help guide me through the recruiting process and for belleving in me every step of the way.
Thank you to Coach Kevin Mulvey and Coach Mike Russo for believing in me and giving me the opportunity to represent such a special program. I'm honored to be a Wildcat and excited to get to work.
The dream doesn't stop here-it's only the beginning.
