Spring Training is nearly a week old for the Pittsburgh Pirates. In 2017 the team will be looking to return to the postseason after they failed to reach the postseason for the first time since 2012 last season. If this is going to happen there is still a hole that needs filled, and that hole is in the starting rotation.
Right-handed pitcher Nick Kingham has all the tools needed to fill that hole for the Pirates. The 25-year old Kingham has yet to make his Major League debut, though. This is what makes him a breakout candidate for 2017.
