When you look at the Pittsburgh Pirates roster and minor league system, you’ll see a trend. The Pirates have many top prospects and young players who are very talented position players, but a lot of them are middle infielders. Guys who have experience at shortstop and second base.
With so many top prospects that can play those positions, it can be hard to find who’s the most talented out of the bunch. Who has the highest ceiling, the highest floor. It’s easy to look at prospect lists and say that this player is better than that player, but sometimes you have to look a bit deeper.
