The Pittsburgh Pirates have multiple young players who are extension candidates. Starting pitcher JT Brubaker should be considered one of the team’s top extension candidates.

When you look at the roster of the Pittsburgh Pirates young keystone players Ke’Bryan Hayes and Bryan Reynolds are likely the most popular extension candidates the team has. The two are projected to be two of the organization’s main pieces they build around throughout these next handful of seasons.
