Pirates' Thomas Harrington: Having shoulder examined

Pirates director of sports medicine Todd Tomczyk said Wednesday that Harrington will be examined for a right shoulder injury, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Harrington had been scheduled to appear in the Spring Breakout series this week, but the injury will foil those plans. The 22-year-old was a first-round pick of the Pirates in 2022 and had an excellent first professional season, collecting a 3.53 ERA and 146:41 K:BB over 127.1 frames between Single-A Bradenton and High-A Greensboro.
