An observation was made during the Pittsburgh Pirates victory against the Milwaukee Brewers last night (9/22). Starter Nick Kingham was seen in the dugout talking to Jameson Taillon and Joe Musgrove. What’s odd about Kingham being in the team’s dugout chatting with other pitchers you ask? Well, over the last few weeks Kingham could be found in the bullpen during games. This meant only one thing, that he would be starting a game soon.
Well, that is going to be the case. The Pittsburgh Pirates will be shutting down starting pitcher Joe Musgrove for the rest of the season.
