Pirates Prospects Daily: Mike Burrows Faces Nick Gonzales In Simulated Game

The Pirates didn’t have a Spring Training game on Sunday, but they did have a scrimmage of sorts at LECOM Park.

Maybe the most notable clip or anything to come out of was the two point of views to come out of a matchup between Mike Burrows and Nick Gonzales.

Burrows has one of the best curveballs in the system, and Gonzales has struggled with breaking pitches throughout his pro career.
