As we push towards Opening Day 2021, all 30 major league teams are trying to finalize a roster. For the Pirates, there are some certainties, like Ke’Bryan Hayes and Bryan Reynolds will be there; Chad Kuhl and Mitch Keller will be in the rotation; and Richard Rodriguez and Kyle Crick will be in the bullpen. However, what other options do the Pirates have for the ‘pen?
These pitchers are the ones who I think will be present on Opening Day, but there is some room for discussion. While it’s clear that some of those players will assuredly be there, not all the roles have been officially decided.
