The Pittsburgh Pirates didn’t use many of their draft picks on position players, but they did snag a pair of outfielders along the way. Less than a month after the draft, both are in Single-A playing for the Bradenton Marauders.
With seven wins in their last 10 games, the Marauders find themselves in first place in the Florida State League, west division in the second half of the season.
While the Marauder rotation has some very promising young arms, the team’s strength down the strength could come from the outfield, as they got additional boosts in Deion Walker and Tanner Tredaway on Friday.
