Taillon to be called up

quote:

The Pirates will call up prospect right-hander Jameson Taillon to make his major league debut Wednesday against the Mets.

The Pirates had a rainout on Monday and are playing a doubleheader on Tuesday, so they were in need of an extra starter for this week. It's unclear what the plans are beyond Wednesday, but there's opportunity in this rotation right now. After missing two full seasons due to injury, the 24-year-old has compiled a 2.04 ERA and 61/6 K/BB ratio in 61 2/3 innings over 10 starts in Triple-A this season. He's worth adding in most mixed formats on the chance that he sticks around
It's always exciting when an exciting prospect gets the call to the Majors...as a Cubs fan, I'll keep a keen eye on this one. Taillon could be around for a little while.

They are coming for you, Cubs. Glasnow will be right behind him.

That was such a weird boom or bust draft. On one hand, there's Harper, Machado, Sale, Harvey and Yelich who are all absolute studs. On the other hand, seven of the top 32 picks are already out of baseball.

For sure. Pirates starting pitching has been so up and down this year. Really excited about these two.

RHP goes tonight, so I'm guessing KB17 in LF and La Stella at 3B.

I'm curious to see if Glasnow comes up this year. Cole, Liriano (hopefully he gets back on track), Taillon, Glasnow is a legit 4-headed monster
