Seth Hernandez and Edward Florentino Are Coming Fast

The Pirates are sending Seth Hernandez and Edward Florentino to the MLB Futures Game, and Alex Stumpf believes both could become mainstays in Pittsburgh sooner rather than later. Hernandez has 100 strikeouts in 62⅓ innings and the competitive mindset to match, while Florentino combines major power with an advanced approach and impressive makeup.

On today’s OffBeat, Alex explains why both prospects could finish 2026 in Altoona and why Hernandez may eventually share a Pirates rotation with Paul Skenes.
