There are no minor league games on Monday, which means every Monday’s Pirates Prospect Watch features the best performers from the previous week.
This week looks at the end of the hitting streak for Nick Gonzales, the continuation of a few other hitting streaks throughout the system, and the usual assortment of quality pitching.
The Hitters
Nick Gonzales, 2B/SS, Indianapolis – Indianapolis only played three games this past week, but that was enough for Gonzales to pick up five hits. He went 2-for-4 on Tuesday and 3-for-5 with a homer on Wednesday, before ending his 14-game hitting streak on Thursday with an 0-for-4 performance.
