Pirates Prospect Watch: Po-Yu Chen and The Greensboro Power Bats

I’m in Greensboro this week, covering the Pittsburgh Pirates’ High-A affiliate. You can expect the daily Prospect Watch to be heavy on reports from these games. Yesterday’s action in Greensboro featured Po-Yu Chen on the mound, plus home runs from three hitters. Elsewhere in the system, Roansy Contreras had a good start, Paul Skenes made his second appearance, and the Bradenton offense was on fire.

Player of the Day

PO-YU CHEN, RHP, GREENSBORO

Chen only pitched three innings last night, throwing 72 pitches. About half of those came in the first inning, which was extended after an error by Termarr Johnson.
