For him to do it in late February as opposed to, say, late March or early April, it's impressive that the ball's coming out of his hand very good, that he felt good out there, that he was feeling it, that he actually said he regrets dialing it back.
The thing that Joey Bart was impressed with, that Don Kelly was impressed with, and that Chandler was pleased with, is that he got strikeouts with his changeup and his slider.
And so that he's got his secondary pitches working as well as he does this early in spring training is a good sign.
But Bubba Chandler is 23, doesn't hurt 24 until I believe September.
So there's going to be a learning curve.
There's going to be some growing pains for him.
But I do think that this is a special talent.
And I think kind of when it's all said and done, and that may not be the start of the season, maybe more so midseason, I think he's going to be your number two starter behind Paul Skeens.
And if you get to the midseason point of that, if things go well, then you have a starting rotation that has
schemes, Chandler Keller and Jones somewhere along the way.
Uh, you know, maybe Jones may start in the bullpen, but you've got some, you know, some, some serious talent there.
And then on the back end, you've got Braxton Ashcraft and Carmen Mijinsky or Jose or Queenie.
So the starting rotation very much should be a strength for the Pirates.
Oh, you know, I think he comes off the IL, and I've got to clarify that he, the IL doesn't start until the season does, so he's got 60 days on there.
So you figure from, you know, March 26th till, you know, late May before he's eligible.
Now, he may be able to start a rehab assignment, and it can go up to 30 days there.
I'm expecting him sometime, you know, in the May to June period,
I'd say mid-June, maybe late June.
I kind of expect him to be back around the All-Star break, and I was thinking more after the All-Star break, personally, just because he doesn't have to worry about taking a break and disrupting his routine if you bring him along that way.
But Jared Jones is certainly ahead of schedule.
