Published:

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

Francisco Acuna

For the second straight day Greensboro got off to a really slow start, and again an eighth inning home run gave them a lead in a game they eventually won. This time it was Francisco Acuna who hit his second home run of the season to give the Grasshoppers the lead.

Rodolfo Nolasco

Nolasco has been one of the hottest players in the system for the Pirates, taking home Florida State League Player of the Week honors last week. Friday he hit this massive home run for the Marauders.

Bubba Chandler

We’ve seen Bubba Chandler at the plate, Friday saw him toe the rubber for the first time with the Bradenton Marauders. He flashed some of the stuff that made him such a highly regarded prospect, but also reminded us that he is still 19-years-old. He struck out four over 2 2/3 innings, but also walked three and allowed four runs. Here’s one of his strikeouts, all three pitches of it.

Blake Sabol

For the second straight day, and three of the last four games, Blake Sabol has hit a home run. He now has 11 on the season with the Altoona Curve.

Carter Bins

The catcher acquired in the Tyler Anderson trade is still struggling to find his groove offensively, but still manages to come through with a big hit here or there. Here he hits a two run double for Indianapolis.

After bouncing around many websites covering hockey, he refocused his attention to baseball, his first love when it comes to sports. He eventually found himself here at Pirates Prospects in late 2021, where he covers the team’s four full season minor league affiliates.
