The Pittsburgh Pirates are entering their third full week of spring training. One of the best things about spring training is it is an opportunity for teams to play and see some of their young prospects get into game action. The big league coaching staff does not get to see their young prospects play a whole lot while in the minors, so this time of year gives a chance for the young prospects to make an impression.
That is happening right now with one specific prospect who is appearing to be this year’s spring training breakout player.
