Summary
The Pittsburgh Pirates are eyeing a breakout move with their fifth draft pick, heavily favoring 21-year-old UC Santa Barbara ace Jackson Flora—a dominant, undefeated pitcher with a 1.06 ERA and Big West Pitcher of the Year honors. With a 21-5 career record and a clear path to their rotation, Flora could accelerate their rebuild. As the draft looms July 11-12 in Philly, the Pirates (41-41) aim to avoid another high pick next year, making this selection pivotal for their future.
