Pirates Lose Pitching Prospect, Nate Adcock

The Kansas City Royals, selected Nate Adcock, in todays Rule 5 Draft. Adcock, acquired from Seattle in 2009, from the Jack Wilson trade, spent the remainder of that season in Lynchburg, and 2010 in Bradenton, where he posted stellar numbers.


2010 MiLB Stats: 11-7, 3.38 ERA in 28 Games/141.1 IP


This is a huge loss for the Pirates. It was a difficult decision, to not protect him, by not placing him on the 40 Man Roster. He would have been a great arm to have in the majors in the coming years.
