Pittsburgh Pirates: Prospects That Could Be On The Opening Day Roster

The Pittsburgh Pirates have a handful of prospects who should reach the majors in 2024, including these three who could push for an Opening Day roster spot

The Pittsburgh Pirates have a handful of prospects who could earn an extended look in the Major Leagues next season. Some could get promoted to the big leagues as early as May. But some could head North with the team after Spring Training and start their 2024 campaign in the Major Leagues.

Now, I don't expect any of the Pirates' big-time top prospects to head to Pittsburgh from Bradenton once Spring Training ends. It would be fun if Paul Skenes and Jared Jones both started the year in the Pirates' starting rotation, but there are plenty of other reasons besides service time that the Pirates will keep them down, at least for the first month of the year. But some could open the year on the team's Opening Day roster.
