Gorkys Hernandez: Short Term Solution for the Outfield
Hernandez has been hitting well since the start of June.
Last night, Gorkys Hernandez went 2-for-4 with two doubles. The performance was part of a hot streak that has seen the young center field prospect put up a .361/.378/.500 line in his last ten games. On the season, Hernandez has a .292/.340/.407 line in 322 at-bats at the AAA level, with 22 doubles and six triples. A lot...

Call Up Gorkys Hernandez by Tom Trudeau

Gorkys Hernandez Should Be Traded
Probably the biggest topic in Pittsburgh sports this month has been what the Pirates should do at the trade deadline. Should they trade away prospects to get a big name player to solidify the lineup and increase our playoff chances? Should we only go after a player that we can lose mainly cash for? Or should we ride out this magical season and see what this team can do without any...

And now Gorkys Hernandez is hurt
The Pirates' terrible, injury-riddle minor league season took another bad turn yesterday when they found out that the hot-since-June Gorkys Hernandez has a broken ring finger and will miss the rest of the season. He should be healthy in time to play some winter ball and make up for the lost time, but it's unfortunate that his injury comes now as he's finally starting...

WAR for Pirate prospects
Gorkys Hernandez - mwlguide, Flickr.comI thought it would be cool to see WAR numbers for some of the Pirates’ top prospects. So I started doing some calculating. For offense, I used wRAA from FanGraphs. The only decent measure of minor league defense that I am aware of is TotalZone over at Minor League Splits, developed by Sean Smith of Baseball Projection. Then I simply added...
