If there’s one thing the Pirates excel at in terms of depth and talent, it’s their starting pitching. The Pirates have six guys with at least a year of starting pitching under their belt, and all have had different levels of success and have the potential to put up quality seasons. Along with a few prospects who have a chance to make their mark in the big leagues this season, the Pirates also have the depth necessary to be one of the best rotations in baseball.
