The MLB Draft is nearly eight months away from taking place. While that seems far away, it will not be long until draft prospects start to participate in workouts, showcases, and games, especially at the college level.
The Pittsburgh Pirates had the second worst record in the National League, only behind the Miami Marlins. The American League had a lot more teams with worse records, so the Bucs ended up getting the seventh overall pick for the 2020 Draft. This is their highest pick since 2011 when they took Gerrit Cole first overall and 2012 when they took Mark Appel eighth overall.
