Pirates Prospect update: Seth Hernandez named top MLB Prospect in FSL

Pittsburgh Pirates young standout Seth Hernandez has captured the Florida State League top prospect accolade following a stellar stretch with the Bradenton Marauders. During six outings in Bradenton, the right-hander posted an unblemished 3-0 record accompanied by a microscopic 0.96 earned run average, yielding just three earned runs while racking up 50 strikeouts alongside a sparkling 0.71 WHIP.

Selected sixth overall in the 2025 draft, the twenty-year-old product of Corona High School ultimately concluded his inaugural professional campaign with six victories against one defeat, a 2.43 ERA, and 118 total strikeouts over 74 innings. His exceptional trajectory also includes FSL Pitcher of the Week and April Pitcher of the Month honors, culminating in a climb from twenty-sixth to seventh overall among baseball prospects as he aims for a major league debut by 2028.
