It will be the sixth time the Pirates pick first and the second time in three years. They took Louisville catcher Henry Davis with the No. 1 pick in 2021.

Future August salary dump sells to Yanks and Dodgers for more prospects.

The Pirates are now an AAA affiliate of the Yankees. That's their lot in life.

Anybody remember the time they picked a middle reliever in the first instead of a highly touted and ultimately decent catcher?

Catchers can be expensive.
