Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Jared Jones has missed over a month due to a right lat strain.
The Pittsburgh Pirates may be getting a much-needed boost to their starting rotation sooner rather than later.
Prior to being placed on the IL, Jones had been enjoying a strong rookie season, going 5-6 with a 3.56 ERA and has struck out 98 batters across 16 starts. The 23-yeard-old right-hander has pitched at least six innings in nine starts and has allowed three earned runs or fewer in all but two of his starts in his first MLB season.
Jones coming back from his lat injury is more than needed for Pittsburgh if it hopes to stay in the race for the NL Wild Card. The Pirates have lost four consecutive games, including three one-run ballgames, and have gone 1-5 in August.
