SF Giants Sign Legend’s Nephew

Earlier this month, the Giants selected Peyton Bonds in the 2026 MLB Draft.

He is the nephew of MLB legend Barry Bonds.

@SFGProspects wrote (on July 11): “With the 90th pick in the @MLBDraft, the @SFGiants have selected OF Peyton Bonds out of @RutgersBaseball”

It’s now been announced that Bonds has signed a deal with the Giants.

Jim Callis of MLB Pipeline wrote: “3rd-rder Peyton Bonds signs w/ @SFGiants for $887k (full slot 90 value). @RutgersBaseball OF, combination of bat speed, in-zone contact & exit velos portend future power. Good CF instincts too. Nephew of Barry, grandson of Bobby.”

Social Media On Peyton

Here’s what people have been saying:

Jeff Young: “Peyton Bonds gets slot value. The #SFGiants now have 2 of their 11 picks within the first 10 rounds signed.”

@ABartholomew_05: “Flora, Bonds, and Fisher are the confirmed bonuses so far. Giants can spend up to 5% over their pool so that leaves about $9,178,630 for the rest of their picks if I did the math right.”

Shayna Rubin: “Michael Holmes said they got a good look at Peyton Bonds while watching him at Rutgers w/ Trevor Cohen, a fast-rising prospect in SF’s system. The Barry part wasn’t so much a factor.”

Looking At Barry
