Unlike the Pitcher of the Month award where Trevor Williams was the only choice, the hitters group had a few choices to discuss. Logan Hill had a slightly higher OPS than Barrett Barnes, while Henrry Rosario had an OPS well above everyone else. Barnes had competition from his own teammate, as Stetson Allie had a very strong month. In the end, we went with Barrett Barnes as the Pirates Prospect Player of the Month for July.
The reason we went with Barnes is because he his age appropriate for his level. He had slightly better stats than Allie, while also getting a little more playing time.
