The Pittsburgh Pirates had a handful of prospects who performed exceptionally well in the second half of the 2023 campaign
Sometimes, it's not about how well you start; it's about how you finish. For these Pittsburgh Pirates prospects, this rings true. While these Pirates prospects may have performed well in the first half, their second halves of the 2023 season were outstanding. They ended the year on an extremely high note and will look to carry that momentum into the 2024 season.
Note by the second half, I am talking about post-all-star break. Anything prior to the All-Star break is considered the first half to make things simple for today's article. Since different levels have differing amounts of games, and players play at different levels, I will give one single point in time for all the prospects talked about today. I also want to mention Bubba Chandler. Chandler had an outstanding second half to 2023, maybe even the best out of all Pirates prospects (at least the pitching prospects), but given I already went in-depth about his second half this week, I want to give some other worthwhile players the attention they deserve.
