The old Pirates Game Discussion on No Quarter is now a Daily Pirates Discussion. We will update the article throughout the day with game notes, links to Pittsburgh Baseball Network stories, and any news for the day.
There are ten minor league games scheduled today, even with the two FCL Pirates teams scheduled to play each other. We are posting the Prospect Watch early today so you can follow along on a busy day. The highlight today is the debut of Bubba Chandler, the 2021 draft who signed a $3M deal. However, he debuted in the DH spot today, though his biggest potential is on the mound.
Pirates were postponed tonight. Doubleheader tomorrow
