Pirates Make First Roster Cuts of Spring Training

The Pittsburgh Pirates announced their first roster cuts of Spring Training and it’s a large group of top prospects. These cuts came quicker than usual, but that was necessary with Spring Training being so short and the Pirates brought a large group of players to Major League camp this year. With some actual position battles to decided in Pittsburgh and the need to get everyone ready for the big league and minor league seasons, there’s no surprise that the first group of cuts came quickly and it was a large group of players who weren’t part of that big league roster competition.
