From playing JC baseball to leaving the game altogether, to say Giants' prospect Bo Davidson's journey to the pros is improbable would be a gross understatement. The 23-year-old lefty-swinging outfielder has all the physical tools to be elite. And he is starting to put a lot of them to good use. Davidson batted 281/376/468 between Eugene (High A) and Richmond (AA). He finished 2025 with 18 HRs, 70 RBIs, and 19 SBs. He ended the season strong in Richmond, flashing the potential that places him near the top of the Giants' prospect list.
In this one-on-one, Cheats and Bo discuss his journey, which began in North Carolina. He played multiple sports growing up, but ultimately settled on baseball. The learning curve at the professional level is steep, but Bo is prepared to take on the challenge. Led by his faith in God and his belief in his ability, he plans to get to the MLB sooner rather than later.
The Black Baseball Mixtape is in partnership with the Players Alliance, Numbers Game Scorecards, Rebellion Harvest (Sunflower Seeds), and Minority Prospects.
