The Pittsburgh Pirates have added to their organizational depth by selecting Chris Rembert, a sophomore from Auburn University, with the 51st overall selection in the Major League Baseball Draft. Rembert, who also played his high school ball at Pensacola Catholic, now embarks on the next phase of his baseball career.

This early selection indicates the significant potential the Pirates see in the young player. Rembert's progression through the collegiate ranks at Auburn has evidently impressed scouts enough to warrant a high draft position.
