Thomas Harrington Hit Hard In MLB Debut Tuesday
21 seconds agoPittsburgh Pirates starting pitching prospect Thomas Harrington had a less-than-ideal MLB debut in Tuesday's 7-0 loss to the Rays. Harrington pitched four innings, allowing six runs on seven hits (including a two-run home run) and four walks with two strikeouts. The 23-year-old is the No. 3 prospect in the Pirates' system and is the No. 78 overall prospect, per MLB Pipeline. He was competing for a rotation spot this spring and compiled a strong 2.61 ERA, 0.96 WHIP, and 25.1% strikeout rate across three levels in the minors in 2024. It remains to be seen if Harrington earned another turn in the rotation, as the Pirates have Carmen Mlodzinski on their roster and also have No. 14 overall prospect Bubba Chandler waiting at Triple-A Indianapolis. Even if Harrington does make another start, fantasy managers may want to sit him until they see more promising results.
