Who handles the glove the best in the Pirates’ system?

Anthony Murphy reviews the top defensive prospects across the Pittsburgh Pirates minor league system as part of an annual series assessing player tools. The analysis focuses on evaluating positional defense among the organization's hitters before transitioning to pitching tools in later coverage.
Murphy notes that catchers are excluded from this review, as their defensive contributions will be covered separately. Among infielders, Murphy highlights prospect Aiden Ruiz based on scouting reports from draft time, though the full analysis is restricted behind a paywall.
