Glasnow now appears to be the most likely Triple-A pitcher to be recalled to start Saturday's game against the Phillies, the Pittsburgh Tribune's Rob Biertempfel reports.
The electric righty was in line to start Saturday for Triple-A Indianapolis, and now Chad Kuhl is listed as the probable starter that day, so it would seem Glasnow, not Kuhl, will be recalled to join the big league rotation. He is already owned in most competitive leagues, but if he happens to be lingering on waivers, the time to grab him is now. It is not clear how many more innings Glasnow has in the tank this season, as he is only two innings away from matching last year's mark of 109.1. Still, on a per-start basis, Glasnow could offer a strikeout per inning with middling ratios as he adjusts to big league hitting and big league strike zones.
