Pittsburgh Pirates: Bradenton Marauders Dominant Closer

The Pittsburgh Pirates 2015 draft has been headlined by the likes of Kevin Newman, Kevin Kramer, and Ke’Bryan Hayes. However, they also drafted six college pitchers in the top 10 rounds in that draft. One of those players is the Bradenton Marauders current closer, and he is performing at a high level.

Draft Year

Seth McGarry was an eighth round pick out of Florida Atlantic University. From the get go, McGarry was considered a projectable back end of the bullpen type arm. Still, the Pittsburgh Pirates are the type of organization to give their young pitchers a chance to start before converting them to a more limited bullpen role.
