Joe Musgrove To Start Thursday
5 years agoPittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Joe Musgrove will make the start against the Braves on Thursday, according to manager Clint Hurdle. Musgrove threw only 18 pitches against the Braves before being ejected for throwing at third baseman Josh Donaldson, so he'll be able to go again in two days. Musgrove has been up and down with a 4.40 ERA (3.78 FIP) and very mediocre 7.09 K/9 and 2.44 BB/9 in 73 2/3 innings over 13 starts for the Bucs. You never really know what you're getting from the right-hander when he toes the rubber. He's allowed only seven home runs, though, and he's fanned 58 and walked 20 this year.
