Welcome to the Pirates Prospects daily video rundown, where we pull some of the top videos of the Pittsburgh Pirates across the internet.
Ke’Bryan Hayes
He’s always hit the ball hard, continually finishing among the best in the league when it comes to exit velocity. The issue has been getting enough lift to do damage with the amount of power he is making contact with the ball.

This one was launched at a pretty ideal angle, something he’s really done well this spring. At 107.1 mph off the bat, Hayes hit his third home run this year on Saturday against the Twins. All three have traveled at least 107 mph off the bat as well.
Mitch Keller
Looking to take another step forward this upcoming season, Keller has looked fantastic in spring. One of the bigger reasons, he’s been implementing the cutter more against lefties.

Here we see him breaking a hitter’s bat with the pitch during his latest start on Saturday. Keller struck out seven batters in 4.2 innings, allowing just one run on three hits, while also hitting two batters.
