Jackson Flora out of UC Santa Barbra might be the Pirates pick at No. 5 and could be in the majors in a year, but not as fast as Skenes. Eric Booth Jr. is a young high school outfielder, but shouldn't be expected to get here as quick as Konnor Griffin. Catcher Vahan Lackey is an interesting name, but it doesn't sound like he will be there for the Pirates. Jonathan would not trade Seth Hernandez and would only think of it if the Pirates were one player away from going to the World Series.
