First Pitch: Who Are the Breakout Candidates in the Pirates’ System in 2016?

I was sitting in the Altoona press box tonight with Sean McCool, trying to figure out how to do this breakout article. I had my breakout candidates picked for the lower levels already, but was trying to figure out who would qualify from the upper levels. It’s definitely possible to have a breakout guy in those levels, as we saw with Max Moroff last year. But how do you pick that guy?

Who in Indianapolis could be considered a legit breakout candidate? Do you count guys like Trevor Williams and Steven Brault, and then call it a success if they reach their upsides?
