Pirates Sign 18th-Round Draft Pick Josh Poytress

Via a team press release, the Bucs have signed 18th-round pick Josh Poytress. Poytress put up decent numbers for a good college program (Fresno State), was drafted in the 16th round out of high school, and was only a junior, so he's probably a prospect. I imagine he'll head to State College. He only pitched 79 innings this year, so he should be able to get some work in. We'll see if he starts or relieves.

Incidentally, if anyone is coming here after hearing the postgame show today, here's the SB Nation Pittsburgh article David and I were talking about.
