The top Giants prospect is off to a hot start in his return to Eugene with a .299/.368/.506 line and four homers through 22 games. His .874 OPS ranks seventh in the High-A circuit to this point -- a stark improvement over his .577 mark in the category over a 36-game span late last season. Luciano, who has plus-plus raw power, has cut his NWL strikeout rate from 37.2 percent in 2021 to 21.8, and that’s aided his turnaround at the level.

The Hops boast a prospect-loaded lineup of their own. Three of the D-backs’ Top 17 prospects are position-player starters in A.J. Vukovich (No. 9), Ryan Bliss (No. 16) and Adrian Del Castillo (No. 17).
