Reports are the Pirates are trying to extend Hayes. Their initial offer was already turned down but it's still nice to see them actually trying. Hopefully they can extend both Hayes and Reynolds.
Looks like Mitch Keller has improved quite a bit in the off-season. Had a rough day today but otherwise has looked really good in ST. Would be huge if he actually realizes the hype and potential he displayed in the minors.
JT Brubaker will start on Opening Day. Keller and Quintana are also locked into the rotation. The last two spots will probably be a revolving door all season. They've got veteran guys in Max Kranick, Wil Crowe, Bryse Wilson, Chase De Jong, and Zach Thompson and a couple young guys in Miguel Yajure and Roansy Contrares trying to win those spots.
