Summary
Jared Jones is back on the mound for the Pirates after elbow surgery, but his comeback hasn’t gone as planned—he’s struggled mightily, surrendering runs and homers in six starts, admitting he’s “not in a good spot.” His latest outing against the Reds saw him give up four runs in under five innings, undone by a chaotic fifth inning featuring wild pitches and a balk. Despite flashes of promise, Jones feels “lit up” and is working with catcher Endy Rodríguez to find rhythm. The fix? Better execution—throwing more strikes and dominating with two-strike pitches, especially avoiding pitches over the middle. He knows what’s needed: fundamentals and focus to rediscover the form everyone expects from him. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
