Day two of the 2022 MLB Draft wrapped on Monday with rounds 3-10. For the Pirates, it was easy to pick up a common theme with their picks: Pitching.
Of the eight selections, five (and a half?) were pitchers, two were outfielders, and one was announced as a two-way player. So, up to this point, the Pirates have made 11 picks and seven of them have been true pitchers, with another in the mix as well.
That’s not 2021 Los Angeles Angels pitching heavy, but it’s pretty close.
With one day left in the draft, I took some time to reflect on what happened on Monday.
