MLB.com Ranks Pittsburgh Pirates Among 10 Best Starting Rotations
The Pittsburgh Pirates are shaping up to have one of the best starting rotations in all of baseball in 2019
During the 2018 season, somewhat surprisingly, the starting rotation wound up being a strong point for the Pittsburgh Pirates. Jameson Taillon emerged as an ace, Trevor Williams put together a great season capped off by a historically good second half, and Joe Musgrove emerged as a strong middle of the rotation arm. Additionally, the team added former Tampa Bay ace Chris Archer at the non-waiver trade deadline in July.
