JT Brubaker Turned Tough April Into Torrid May

It has been a tale of two months for Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher JT Brubaker.

April was poor, but May was stellar.

The Pirates 2022 Opening Day starter has been a shaky piece in the starting rotation since making his MLB debut during the shortened-2020 season.

Brubaker displayed stints of solid pitching performances last season but never put everything together in either year to record a sub-4.90 ERA.

The Bucs former sixth-round pick in the 2015 MLB Draft owns a career 5.01 ERA in 45 games, 43 of them as starts.
