One starter for the Pittsburgh Pirates made his return from Tommy John surgery last season. He is coming into this season feeling healthy.
Despite seeing his name come up in trade rumors all offseason, Chad Kuhl will again return to the Pirates rotation in 2021. After missing half of 2018 and all of 2019 with Tommy John surgery, the former ninth round pick out of Delaware in 2013 made his return last season.
