MILWAUKEE -- Giants prospect Jhonny Level is ... leveling up.
The 19-year-old shortstop was promoted to High-A Eugene on Monday following a scorching start to the season at Single-A San Jose, where he batted .325 with a .968 OPS, 10 home runs, 47 RBIs and 11 stolen bases over 44 games.
Level, the Giants’ No. 4 prospect, ranked second in the California League in homers and RBIs and fourth in OPS, helping him break into MLB Pipeline's Top 100 Prospects list in April. He’s now ranked as MLB’s No. 63 prospect overall and will be the youngest player in the Northwest League when he debuts for the Emeralds, a sign of the meteoric rise he’s enjoyed this year.
With Eugene, Level is poised to play alongside fellow middle infielder Gavin Kilen, the Giants’ No. 5 prospect and 2025 first-round Draft pick. Kilen, 22, has served as the Emeralds’ starting shortstop this year, so it will be interesting to see how the Giants split up reps between him and Level at the position moving forward.
Level’s arrival will only add to the abundance of young talent at Eugene, which ranks first in the Northwest League with a dominant 37-14 record in 2026. Other top Giants prospects on the High-A roster include outfielder Dakota Jordan (No. 6), left-hander Jacob Bresnahan (No. 8) and outfielder Trevor Cohen (No. 9).
