The preview for Bristol is the exact opposite of the GCL Pirates preview from yesterday. That one was all about the huge potential the team has on offense. Bristol has some possible sleeper prospects on offense, but the pitching will be the main focal point this season.
We start with that pitching and the best prospects are known as the "Big Three", Mitch Keller(pictured above), Trey Supak and Gage Hinsz. All three were prep pitchers that the Pirates drafted last year. They were born within a 57-day span of each other in 1996 and all three received over-slot bonuses.
