Pirates News
Jared Jones left yesterday's game against the Rockies in a fit of frustration after taking a line drive off his right elbow, but thankfully, X-rays came back negative. The Pirates salvaged a victory in the series finale, defeating Colorado 8-6, but the loss of Jones looms large as they return home. With a record of 38-39, the pressure is mounting on Ben Cherington to make impactful moves ahead of the upcoming MLB Draft, and rumors suggest he may deal a competitive balance pick. The team is treading water, and with only three wins in their last seven games, fans are left wondering if this roster has the firepower to push into the playoff conversation. As they gear up for a crucial home stretch, every game carries heightened significance.
