On the first day of the international signing period, the Pittsburgh Pirates started with two big splashes as they are set to sign two top 50 prospects out of the Dominican Republic.

The player with the highest status signed by Pittsburgh is outfielder Brailyn Brazodan, who is coming off the heels of his 18th birthday just a week prior. A tall, athletic figure out in center field, Brazodan is being touted as one of the top prospects in this class with exceptional skills at the plate hitting for consistent contact with flashes of power and the ability to confidently run the bases.
