Pirates Draft Preview 2026 | Pittsburgh Pirates News
Description
The Pittsburgh Pirates are poised to make waves in the 2026 MLB Draft with their fifth overall pick, targeting elite college arm Jackson Flora or speedy high school outfielder Eric Booth Jr. — both potential franchise cornerstones. With eleven total picks and a loaded second round, the Pirates have a chance to reshape their roster for the long haul, even after trading their earlier Competitive Balance pick. The draft kicks off July 11th on NBC and Peacock, with MLB Network covering the rest — a pivotal window to build a future-ready team.
