WTM’S PIRATE PLAYER PROFILES

The Pirates drafted Eades out of Delgado Community College in Louisiana, where he was in his second year.  Eades was listed at the school’s web site as a catcher and pitcher, but he didn’t pitch at all in 2014.  In fact, he was one of the team’s best hitters, with good power.  The Pirates, however, announced him as a pitcher.  I don’t know whether he pitched in 2013 and I can’t find any information about him as a pitcher.  As of mid-May, he hadn’t signed on with a four-year school, so the Pirates may be able to sign him.
