We’ve focused heavily on the Pittsburgh Pirates having the first overall pick in this summer’s draft but let’s take another look at some potential second-round picks for the team in this upcoming draft

The Pittsburgh Pirates have the number one overall pick in the 2021 MLB Draft. They’ll have free reign over who they get to select with their first-round draft pick. We’ve done plenty of coverage on potential first overall selections. Right now, it’s a pretty close race between Vanderbilt pitcher Jack Leiter and top high school prospect shortstop Jordan Lawlar. However, Marcelo Mayer also can not be completely ruled out.

The Pittsburgh Pirates will also have the 37th overall pick in the second-round. We’ve already covered some potential second-round selections. We took a look at three potential second-round picks here before while also exploring the possibility of Jaden Hill falling to the 37th pick, but there are plenty of other candidates the Bucs could choose with that selection.

With that, I want to take a look at a few more potential prospects the team could pick with that second-round pick.
