The MLB draft is where many teams find their next star. That’s how the Pittsburgh Pirates found players such as Neil Walker, Andrew McCutchen, Gerrit Cole, Jameson Taillon, and many more. But, sometimes, the team is unable to sign players and they get redrafted the next year. Other times, they are traded before they make their debut, and sometimes their tenure with the team that drafted them is just forgotten.
Every MLB team can make an All-Star quality lineup and pitching staff from players that their fans have likely forgotten that their team drafted. Unfortunately, the Pirates are no different than the rest of baseball when it comes to this.
