I think the reason Yean is getting moved up is b/c you can only have 2 players in High A that have 6 years or more years of MiLB experience(and this is his 6th year). I don’t think it has anything to do with performance..lol.
Isaac Mattson played his college ball at Pitt. He was RP only there too, albeit a good one. He was also a Cape League AS his one summer on the Cape. And even though he was drafted in the 19th round he was a seen a player that could move quickly(that didn’t seem to go as planned).
FB is 93-95 and he has a SL, CB and CH. He pitches from the stretch only if I remember correctly. He’s put up good numbers until AAA and had a cup of coffee with Baltimore(acquired from the Angels in the Dylan Buddy trade) in 2021 that didn’t go so well.
Here’s a little bit more on Mattson from Eric Longenhagen. He was ranked the 25th best prospect in the Orioles organization by FG in 2021(and I believe on their 40 man roster at that time).
Pirates win 7-4 and are in first place with the best record in baseball.

i know this is the altoona article, but i don't see reilly on any of the site's rosters. where is he?
The roster the Pirates tweeted out said Greensboro, but he's not listed there online
indeed. hence my question
He's not on any roster now, which usually means injury.
hmmm interesting, especially since their manager said he was starting on saturday
Another possibility is that he'll be activated before that game. MiL roster-juggling is a complex science.
who knows. I guess we'll see soon enough. I was just curious though!
Bubba, Solo, and Ashcraft will make Altoona fans very happy people this season.
and Termarr might be the headliner. I am hoping Harrington will be healthy enough to join that group.
That roster has several players that are fun to watch.
