WTM’s PLAYER PROFILE |
||||||
| The Pirates selected Harrington as a draft-eligible sophomore from Campbell. He had an impressive record there, starting 29 games combined as a freshman and sophomore. The first year he had an ERA of 3.57 and fanned 72 in 70.2 IP. In 2022, he had an ERA of 2.53 and struck out 111 in 92.2 IP and walked only 18. He has a low, three-quarters delivery and excellent control. Harrington’s best pitch is a change that gets swings and misses. His fastball ranges from the low- to mid-90s, according to MLB.com. He also has a high-spin slider that’s very promising and a potentially good change. He occasionally throws a curve. He’s a good athlete and may offer more projection. Baseball America ranked Harrington 48th among draft prospects and MLB.com 45th. He signed for $100,300 under the slot amount.
2022 As is so often the case with the Pirates, Harrington didn’t appear in a game after signing. In fact, he was never placed on any roster.
