The Pittsburgh Pirates saw these five prospects have strong second halves of the 2022 campaign

Not every single player gets off to a great start to the season, and we often see players heat up in the second half of the season. The Pittsburgh Pirates have had Bryan Reynolds and Rodolfo Castro put up decent numbers post-All-Star Break. The Pirate minor league system also has some pretty impressive second halves of 2022.

The Pirates had plenty of top performers throughout the minor league system this year. Of course, you had the big names like Nick Gonzales, Ji-Hwan Bae, and Endy Rodriguez, but you also had some lesser talked about prospects like Jacob Gonzalez, Blake Sabol, and Abrahan Gutierrez turn in decent campaigns.

With that, I think it’s time we look at the best performances in the second half of 2022. I’m looking at what prospects did from the end of the All-Star break to today, so without further ado, let’s look at our first top performer.
