Pittsburgh Pirates Farm System: The Pirates’ farm system is headlined by Konnor Griffin—the No. 1 prospect in baseball—and backed by a mix of high-ceiling talent, volatile power-speed profiles, and emerging arms that offer both promise and risk.
🥇 Tier 1: Fantasy Impact Targets
- Konnor Griffin – 20–40 upside with elite tools and improving contact. A future fantasy star.
- Bubba Chandler – Athletic righty with top-30 SP potential. Arsenal remains strong despite command hiccups.
- Edward Florentino – 30-HR power and 35-SB speed. If the contact holds, he’s a fantasy monster.
🥈 Tier 2: Everyday-Upside Targets
- Termarr Johnson – OBP machine with 15+ HR and 12+ SB potential. Quietly productive across formats.
- Seth Hernandez – 100 MPH fastball and starter traits. Long runway, but top-30 SP ceiling if it clicks.
- Hunter Barco – Mid-rotation lefty with improved velocity and secondaries. Tough angles and matchup value.
- Keiner Delgado – Speed, contact, and emerging pop. If the swing decisions improve, he’s a fantasy MI with upside.
- Yordanny De Los Santos – Power-speed threat with swing-and-miss risk. Could be a Top 15 fantasy 3B.
