According to Noah Hiles of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the Pirates are calling up prospect infielder Nick Yorke.
Yorke, who the team acquired from the Red Sox at the trade deadline is the Pirates’ 6th-ranked prospect. Since coming to the Pirates, he’s hitting .355 with a .938 OPS and seven steals in 40 games. On the season, he has 12 home runs and 21 steals in 123 games, so he profiles as more of a 15/15 or 15/20 player at the next level which puts him on the deep league radar. He has been playing mainly second base and left field since coming to Pittsburgh but with Nick Gonzales and Bryan Reynolds playing regularly in those spots, it will be curious to see how Yorke is used once he gets to the big leagues.
