Pirates Discussion: Future Depth

Envision for a moment that Ben Cherington uses this off-season to assemble a competent MLB club. There are different scenarios of how each of us believe that roster could look like, but overall we’ll imagine it’s a roster worth watching.

This is similar to one of the first Discussion articles I wrote, and Monday’s discussion got me thinking about it again. What will the Indianapolis Indians roster look like to begin the 2023 season?

The Pittsburgh Pirates have had a varying degree of success from the ensemble of rookies that have seen playing time in 2022. What I’m interested in seeing is how the Triple-A roster is filled out with the current year’s version of Kevin Padlo, Drew Maggi, or Josh VanMeter.
