Draft Prospect Watch: Another Noteworthy College Bat

We have already posted 11 Draft Prospect Watch articles as we lead up to the 2022 draft, which begins on Sunday July 17th, when the Pittsburgh Pirates will make the fourth overall pick in the draft.

With two weeks left until the draft, this will likely be our final Draft Prospect Watch article, unless a new name pops up late. The Pirates have been said to be interested in college bats throughout this whole process, and there is one more college bat to look at before we tentatively wrap up this series.

Texas Tech second baseman Jace Jung was actually connected to the Pirates last year (December I believe) in the way too early mock draft look at the draft class.
