Kuhl I believe has the arsenal to be better than a back of the rotation guy as well.  He's got the weaponry to mix in








So, you have JT and a bunch of ????.  Kuhl is no better than a five.  He isn't consistent.  To me, he would be a better bullpen guy. 


No.  JT is a question mark too, just less of one..   Kuhl and Musgrove are definitely bigger question marks, they just actually have the pitches and mix to end up better than back of the rotation. Something Williams, Nova, Brault, and possibly Kingham don't have.



Idk about Kingham yet.  Probably no chance though




That is the whole thing. We have nothing but question marks. There is zero consistency with this crew. Dog will continue with the built in excuse that this rotation is young. Whatever. I don't see any long term solution in this rotation to be honest. When JT is one ... that is one thing, but he too is inconsistent.

I think I agree with you. Kuhl seems like he has the pure stuff to be good, he just hasn't reached it yet.


Kuhl is a bullpen arm to me ... probably would be more effective.

If this new slider that Taillon is throwing continues to be as good as it has been the past few starts, he is going to be stupid-good. Hopefully he stays healthy.

Bland but reliable, won't set any records and you probably wish you had something else.  Like our rotation. :D

I am concerned that they will come back from this road trip several games under .500. Six games with the Cubs and DBacks will be tough.

Why is it that a lot of franchises can develop young pitchers that have success, but Pittsburgh fans like you use the built in excuse that they are young? It gets old.

Because when Pittsburgh gets a young pitcher developed like Gerritt Cole, they immediately trade/salary dump him away so they don't have to pay him.
