Morning Report: DSL Pirates Have Been Disappointing From a Prospect Standpoint

Related Topics: Digital subscriber line, Adonis

About three weeks ago, I did a DSL recap of the first half and it was mostly focused on a young team having a lot of issues with injuries. Since then, the team has been relatively healthy, at least compared to the first half. The problem with the three injuries that have occurred since then, is that they are all big name players.

Catcher Gabriel Brito and pitchers Brian Sousa and Adonis Pichardo have all missed time recently. Brito has returned after a left hand injury cost him two weeks, but the two pitchers are still out. Sousa is having shoulder issues for the second time, while Pichardo has arm fatigue and hasn't pitched since July 15th.
