We are about three weeks into the Arizona Fall League and maybe the most interesting thing to transpire there among the prospects the Pirates sent over has been Nick Gonzales getting significant playing time at third base for the Surprise Saguaros.
Gonzales has come up with some big hits, including a pair of home runs, but it has been the expanding of his defensive flexibility that has been the bigger development.
When he was drafted, Gonzales was touted as a hit-first second base prospect, one some believed could eventually compete for a batting title at the major league level.
