Pirates' Jameson Taillon Open to Having Hand Urinated on If It Heals Cut Finger

Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Jameson Taillon is willing to adopt extreme measures if it means healing a cut on the middle finger of his right hand.

Taillon told the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review's Jerry DiPaola he'd let his teammates urinate on his throwing hand if it expedited the healing process.

"I said if it helps, I'll put a sign-up sheet and everyone can come and pee," he said. "I don't care. I just want it to go away."

Taillon later tweeted the comment was made largely in jest:

Jameson Taillon

Gotta clarify this whole pee on hand thing.
