Jack Suwinski Working to Prove He Belongs in the Majors

When Jack Suwinski was rushed to the majors by the Pirates on April 26, it was not clear how long he would stick in the big leagues. Suwinski was brought up in a bit of an emergency situation with Bryan Reynolds and Cole Tucker going on the COVID injured list just hours before the contest.

However, in just two and a half weeks, Suwinski has provided a steadying factor, continuing to get starts in the outfield.

While the overall numbers may not indicate his value to the team, Pirates manager Derek Shelton has seen Suwinski’s worth to be well beyond his years and experience.
