A few Monday’s ago, the Pittsburgh Pirates broadcast had prospect Quinn Priester on during the game and Matt Capps and the young pitcher got into an interesting discussion about his arsenal.
The conversation carried into talk about just how Priester utilizes his sinker and whether he throws it on both sides of the plate, with the former first round pick mentioning that it’s a work in progress.
Capps then gave out a few pointers in what helped him, with the focus eventually going back to the game. Fast forward to last night and Priester put in one of his better performances of the season, needing only 75 pitches to finish seven innings of shutout baseball.
