Live Discussion: Videos for Chris Archer, Cole Tucker, Eduardo Vera and the Escobars

Published:

Yesterday’s first day of Spring Training workouts saw a lot of rain, which pushed everything indoors away from the media. So today we have some videos from bullpens. Tim Williams was able to get Chris Archer, Eduardo Vera, Luis Escobar and Elvis Escobar. He then went over to the field and got the end of Cole Tucker’s infield practice, so that’s included below.

Here’s Archer throwing to Francisco Cervelli

The Pirates have a saying on the minor league said: “It all starts in Bradenton”…but now you know how far you have to travel to get elsewhere.

John was born in Kearny, NJ, two blocks from the house where Dots Miller grew up. From that hometown hero connection came a love of Pirates history, as well as the sport of baseball. When he didn't make it as a lefty pitcher with an 80+ MPH fastball and a slider that needed work, John turned to covering the game, eventually focusing in on the prospects side, where his interest was pushed by the big league team being below .500 for so long. John has covered the minors in some form since the 2002 season, and leads the draft and international coverage on Pirates Prospects. He writes daily on Pittsburgh Baseball History, when he's not covering the entire system daily throughout the entire year on Pirates Prospects.
