The Pittsburgh Pirates are calling up 2021 first overall pick Henry Davis, ahead of tonight’s game against the Chicago Cubs.
When the Pirates call up a player, we run a Roundtable series called “The Book”, where all of our writers give their expectations for the recent callup. In the case of someone like Osvaldo Bido (tonight’s starter), our information might be the first time most people have heard of the player.
In the case of a first overall pick like Davis, most Pirates fans know who he is and have been waiting on him to arrive.
