Prospect Watch: Mike Burrows and Quinn Priester Highlight Sunday’s Action

Today is a big day for top pitching prospects. Mike Burrows will make his Triple-A debut with Indianapolis. Quinn Priester will make his Altoona debut. He was originally scheduled to make his season debut with Altoona, until a late spring oblique injury set him back. He has made one start for Bradenton (three shutout innings) and one start for Greensboro (five earned runs in 2.2 IP). All three of the short-season teams are off today.

YESTERDAY’S RESULTS

The system has eight games scheduled, with Greensboro again trying to play two. The FCL Pirates played a morning game, headlined by two very interesting pitchers.
