Minor Moves: Quinn Priester Joins Altoona; Mike Burrows Officially Promoted to Indianapolis

After making one rehab start that went great with Bradenton and one that didn’t go so well with Greensboro, 21-year-old right-handed pitcher Quinn Priester has joined Altoona, where he was slated to start the 2022 season before being sidelined by an oblique injury. Priester tossed three no-hit frames in his season debut, then gave up five runs in 2.2 innings with Greensboro.

We heard about the move a few days ago, but Mike Burrows was officially promoted to Indianapolis today. Priester will slide into Burrows spot, which was coming up on Sunday. Burrows will now start for Indianapolis on Sunday.
