Pirates DVR: Canaan Smith-Njigba Home Run, Javier Rivas Hit, Oneil Cruz Double

Published:

Welcome to the Pirates Prospects daily video rundown, where we pull some of the top videos of the Pittsburgh Pirates across the internet. 

Canaan Smith-Njigba

What better way to celebrate making the Opening Day roster than to flex some of that power that put him in that position to breaking camp with the Major League team.

Smith-Njigba launched this three-run home run to temporarily give the Pirates a lead.

Javier Rivas

The infielder had a really strong season in the FCL last year, and he’s a breakout candidate for the upcoming season when it comes to lower level players. He got a taste of a Major League game on Tuesday, picking up a base hit.

He flexed even more of his power potential in a minor league scrimmage game on Monday.

Oneil Cruz

With the regular season getting ready to begin and the regulars start to play a lot more, we can expect even more of this.
