Pittsburgh Pirates 2026 Diversity in Baseball Operations Fellowship

The Pittsburgh Pirates Diversity in Baseball Operations Fellowship is a year-long paid opportunity for candidates from historically underrepresented backgrounds interested in front-office careers. Fellows are placed in Research & Development, Player Development, Amateur Scouting, or Pro Scouting, and work closely with department leadership on projects tied to the team's competitive cycle. Core responsibilities depend on placement but include quantitative analysis, scouting report compilation, video review, player development plan support, and contributing to major league advance materials. The program provides mentorship, access to industry conferences, and a structured capstone. Candidates should be recent graduates of a bachelor's or master's program with strong analytical and communication skills. The 12-month fellowship begins in February 2026 at PNC Park, with an annualized stipend of $48,000.
