It’s seemingly time for the Pirates to let the kids play as they have fallen out of contention.
Bring up Mitch Keller, Ke’Bryan Hayes, Cole Tucker and Will Craig from Class AAA Indianapolis and see what they can do in the major leagues. At least, that’s the clamor among a certain percentage of the fan base.
However, Neal Huntington countered that idea Sunday by saying the Pirates are already letting the youngsters play as they try to get a head start on 2020.
“In terms of play the kids, we are,” Huntington said as he met with reporters prior to the game with the Mets at PNC Park.
