Summary
Jared Jones is battling through a rough start to the season after elbow surgery, posting a brutal 6.23 ERA in four outings and surrendering five runs in just four innings his last time on the mound. While his struggles are expected for a pitcher rehabbing from such surgery, Jones remains focused on winning and refuses to lower his standards. The Pirates are being cautious with his workload, limiting him to five innings or fewer per start. Though he’s had shaky performances—including a debut where he gave up homers—he’s shown flashes of his old brilliance, including a five-inning shutout and a clutch, three-strikeout inning against the bases-loaded threat. His slider’s been off lately, but the team’s confident he’ll regain his dominant form soon. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
