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
Johan Oviedo
Since being acquired in the Jose Quintana trade, the Pirates have been stretching out Johan Oviedo to make him a starter. He pitched his longest outing since going the team, throwing 2 2/3 innings of one-hit baseball while striking out five batters.
Five up, five punchouts for @JohanOviedo24 today.
In 7 2/3 innings with Indianapolis, Oviedo has allowed just one earned one, walked two and struck out nine.
Hoy Park
Park has been on a bit of a power binge this month, picking up his fourth home run of August on Sunday. He has six total extra-base hits on the month as well, adding in two doubles.
Pretty ironic that we're playing the Windy City affiliate today.
Travis Swaggerty
Swaggerty continues to flex his speed this month, picking up his seventh stolen base of August on Sunday. He was also able to score on the play and the ball got behind the catcher.

Valentin Linarez
I featured Linarez on Friday’s article drop, and here’s a look at one of his more recent starts against Palm Beach.
In six innings, Linarez allowed just two hits while striking out seven batters in the process.
