Seth Hernandez Impresses, is he the Next No. 1 Pitching Prospect?
Pittsburgh Pirates pitching prospect Seth Hernandez was selected with the sixth overall pick in the 2025 Draft, but he did not pitch professionally at all last year after being drafted. The 6-foot-4 hurler made his highly anticipated debut this season at Single-A Bradenton and has been impressive through two starts, allowing just one earned run on three hits and one walk while striking out 15 in seven innings of work. Known for a fastball that can touch triple-digits and three solid secondary pitches (changeup, slider, curve), the right-hander has already become the organization's top pitching prospect and looks like he'll make quick work of Single-A. The product out of Corona High School in California may be a year or two away from the big leagues, but he should get a chance to test his mettle at High-A in the coming weeks. Currently ranked as MLB's No. 26 prospect overall (No. 3 right-handed pitcher), dynasty managers should have the 19-year-old stashed away, as he has the makings of the next big pitching prospect who should one day be a front-of-the-rotation starter.
