Episode Details

Seth Hernandez is wasting no time showing why the Pirates were thrilled to land him in the first round. On this week’s Bucs On Deck, Jim and Anthony Murphy break down Hernandez’s electric start to his pro career, including his dominant numbers in the Florida State League, overpowering pitch mix, absurd whiff rates, and why his advanced command and changeup separate him from most high school arms.

They also discuss how quickly Hernandez could move through the Pirates’ system, why a Greensboro promotion may not be far away, how he compares to past prep pitching prospects, and whether he could eventually become the top pitching prospect in all of baseball. With Konnor Griffin and Bubba Chandler graduating from prospect lists, Hernandez may be next in line as the Pirates’ premier prospect.
