Fastball/Sinker FastballĪ common theme in the Pirates system is that pitchers are starting to get a little more breaking/offspeed happy, mainly due to fastballs that don’t really have the traditional swing and miss stuff. So, now that his time in Single-A is done, a look back at how he performed at the level, using those pitch tracking numbers.
The good that came out of him spending two months with the Marauders is that we got eight starts worth of data on him, thanks to Baseball Savant tracking Florida State League games. He’ll get a new challenge, as of course Greensboro is a notorious hitter friendly park, and the South Atlantic League in general tends to put up more offense as well. Bradenton lost once across his eight starts with the team.Īfter going 4-1 with a 2.77 ERA, while posting 40 strikeouts in 39 innings in Single-A, Harrington was promoted to the more talent appropriate level of High-A. That turned out to be the case, as the former Campbell pitching standout dominated the level. Most scouting reports raved about his secondary stuff, and factoring in him being the 36th overall pick, Single-A may not have been the most aggressive of pushes. Not always the strangest of stops for some college pitchers, but certainly one of note for one as potentially polished as Harrington was.
