Morning Rundown: Pirates game postponed, Jared Jones to make 2025 debut on Tuesday
Notable prospect performances from around the league, Jared Jones on the bump for Pirates
Rain that covered most of Florida wiped out one game (Mets vs. Cardinals), including the Pirates game that would have featured Paul Skenes’ 2025 debut.
So, now the attention shifts to Tuesday back at LECOM where Jared Jones will make his 2025 debut against the Atlanta Braves.
The Pirates won their first two games over the weekend, defeating the Baltimore Orioles and Minnesota Twins.
First pitch will be 1:05 pm ET, and there doesn’t appear to be a video stream for the game.
With not much other action around baseball, here’s a look at some of the notable prospect performances on Monday.
STL - JJ Wetherholt: 0-1
LAD - Zyhir Hope: 1-2
CIN - Sal Stewart: 1-1, HR, R, RBI
COL - Zac Veen: 2-3, R, 2B
COL - Chase Dollander: 2 IP, 2 H, ER, 3 K
A’s - Nick Kurtz: 0-1, BB
CHW - Kyle Teel: 0-0, 2 BB, R
