The San Francisco Giants selected Peyton Bonds with the 90th overall pick of the MLB draft. Bonds, the nephew of Barry Bonds and grandson of Bobby Bonds, brings a strong family legacy to the Giants.

Standing 6-foot-5 and weighing 230 pounds, Bonds posted a career college line of .305 with 16 home runs over three seasons. His most recent campaign at Rutgers finished at .352, adding 6 homers and 13 stolen bases.

Power metrics underscore his upside: Bonds hit a ball 111.2 mph off a wood bat in combine practice and drove an aluminum ball to a peak exit velocity of 120.7 mph this spring. His chase rate sits at 39%, below league average, but his hit‑to‑ball skill and speed suggest he could anchor the Giants’ center‑field in the long run.

The pick delivers a high‑upside outfielder who blends raw power with emerging Currying speed. For the Giants, it adds depth to a roster that has recently struggled in the outfield. For fans, it signals a commitment to building a competitive core rooted in the Bonds family legacy.
