There are several prospects in the system that are getting to participate in the World Baseball Classic. Antwone Kelly is among them, and one of the youngest to participate. After striking out 29 batters in 23.1 innings pitched last year in the FCL, Kelly is playing for the Netherlands currently.
Efficient inning for Antwone Kelly for the Netherlands. The run on his fastball is impressive. At 19-years-old, should get a look at him in Bradenton this upcoming season. #Pirates @pirateprospects pic.twitter.com/VkXtfdE3kK
