Watch: Pirates’ 2021 Draft Pick Braylon Bishop Shows Violent Swing

When the Pirates selected Braylon Bishop in the 14th round in the 2021 draft, most experts and fans doubted that he would sign the dotted line. With a previous commitment to Arkansas and a mysterious tweet, all seemed lost, and the remnants of a pipe dream barely existed. Out of nowhere, Ben Cherington pulled off some voodoo magic and signed Bishop with a $268,700 signing bonus. Very little has been seen in terms of video on Bishop since signing with the Pirates, so below is a glimpse of what kind of swing the young man from Texarkana has!

I got a feeling Braylon Bishop is going to be very fun to watch in 22’. I mean just look at that bat speed 👀
