WTM watched the Hillcats play at Potomac last night and has been kind enough to share these photos with us. You can learn more about all of these guys at WTM's own excellent Pirate Player Profiles site and some of them in the Bucs Dugout top prospects list. Thanks, WTM!

This is new Pirate prospect Josh Harrison, who was acquired in the John Grabow / Tom Gorzelanny deal.

Above is Justin Wilson, the Pirates' 5th rounder in 2008.

Way more after the jump.

More of Wilson.

Here's Wilson throwing to Matt Hague, the Pirates' 9th-round pick in 2008.

Hague again.

2008 4th-rounder Chase D'Arnaud doubles.

Above is Eric Fryer, one of the players acquired in the Eric Hinske deal.

2008 3rd-rounder Jordy Mercer homers.

Another shot of Mercer.

Here's reliever Tom Boleska.

This is Jamie Romak, who arrived with Adam LaRoche from the Braves before the 2007 but has since dropped off the prospect map.

Finally, we have a couple more shots of Harrison.

How did D'Arnaud look in the field?

His hitting stats suggest he’s a genuine prospect.

Viva Clemente!

That was the first time I’d seen him play. He was at second and had maybe two routine plays to make.

I saw him a few times playing for the Power

He looked smooth, fluid, and confident and flashed an adequate arm. His range was probably average at best though.

What kind of camera do you have? and do you take pictures professionally? Just curious.

Only ask, because you got pretty good pictures and mine never turn out that good lol.

Canon EOS Rebel XSi with an EF 70-300mm lens. I’m really just learning to use the thing. I got it primarily to shoot birds and scenery, but it works well for this.
