Taillon, 24, has a 1.82 ERA and 51:5 K:BB through 49.1 innings for Triple-A Indianapolis.
Taillon's most recent start was a gem, as he tossed six scoreless innings Thursday. The burly righty scattered five hits, did not walk a batter while fanning eight. It seems as though Taillon is finally all the way back from his various injuries, and he should make his MLB debut this summer. The Pirates will likely be conservative with his innings after two seasons off, so it will be interesting to see how much the organization limits his pitch counts prior to promoting him.
