The Pirates depend on their farm system to keep their major league roster stocked with affordable talent, and they have six players in this year’s top 100. Most of their top-10 prospects are close to big-league-ready and likely to assume regular roles by 2018. And they still have Andrew McCutchen, who could have substantial trade value this summer if he comes back fully healthy. If the Pirates are out of contention enough to consider dealing him, he would likely return at least one top-100 prospect.
