Welcome to the Pirates Prospects daily video rundown, where we pull some of the top videos of the Pittsburgh Pirates across the internet.
Daily Video Rundown
Blake Sabol
The catcher launched his tenth home run of the season, a three-run shot, giving the Altoona Curve a 6-1 lead in a game they eventually won. Sabol now has 43 RBI on the season after the home run.

Andres Alvarez
It’s not even a surprise anymore, as Andres Alvarez hit another extra-base hit, this time his team leading 13th home run of the season.

Abrahan Gutierrez
Things weren’t going great for the Grasshoppers for the first part of Thursday’s game. They continued to chip away at the lead Brooklyn held, with Gutierrez delivering the big blow in the eighth inning. His sixth home run of the season gave Greensboro the lead, before Oliver Mateo shut the door in the ninth.

Fabricio Macias
The 24-year-old outfielder has been on a tear in the eight games since joining the Curve. He has a .839 OPS, four doubles and five RBI in that span, adding to the last two categories in Thursday’s game.

Bubba Chandler
No baseball, actually literally when it comes to Bradenton. Their game was postponed till Friday due to weather, pushing back the Single-A pitching debut of Bubba Chandler. We still got a little video of him, throwing the football around. Chandler of course was a four-star quarterback recruit and was set to play for Clemson had he gone to college.

Oneil Cruz
Won’t be long before Cruz isn’t a ‘prospect’, so we have to take in what we can, while we can. Here he is casually making the fastest throw from an infielder during the statcast era (2015).
