Heredia is the wild card. He's still a baby at 17, but a growth spurt this offseason has him up to 6-7, 220 pounds -- suddenly taller than the rest -- before he's gotten out of rookie ball.


Heredia is going to be a monster. This kid needs to take up a second sport. He could be a left tackle or a power forward. Just imagine 17 year old kids trying to face this dude when he is on the hill.

It almost seems unreal -- If he grew up the USA, he would have been playing all 3 major sports, would have tons of college scholarship offers, and may not even be a baseball player

Um no. Please let him just concentrate on being an ace for the Pirates.

Love it, Steel. Keep that positive vibe going, brother.

I'm very happy with our young pitchers. I'm hopeful we're going to have monsters on the hill when they mature enough to get to the bigs.
