In our draft preview, I noted that every source we use believes that this draft class is loaded at the top with college pitching. Since most colleges played their second week of action this weekend, we start there with a couple of the top names. With the draft taking place on June 12-14, it's still very early in the process and this just gives you a couple names to follow. The Pirates have four picks on day one of the draft, and five of the first 88 picks. They also have a large bonus pool, which should give them an opportunity to load up the farm system.
