Item Description
Jameson Taillon was drafted by the Pirates as the second overall pick in the 2010 Major League Baseball draft. Taillon made his professional debut with the West Virginia Power on April 27, 2011. He was named to appear in the 2012 All-Star Futures Game. He began the season with the Bradenton Marauders and he was promoted to the Altoona Curve in August 2012. In his first week with the Curve, August 20–26, 2012, Taillon was named the Eastern League pitcher of the week. In 26 starts between the two teams, he was 9–8 with a 3.55 ERA. Prior to the 2013 season, Taillon was ranked as the 15th best prospect in baseball by MLB.com. He began the season with Altoona and was promoted to the Indianapolis Indians in August.
Taillon underwent Tommy John surgery in April 2014 to repair damage to the ulnar collateral ligament of the elbow in his throwing arm, costing him the 2014 season, while a sports hernia caused him to miss the 2015 season.
Taillon made his major league debut with the Pirates on June 8, 2016. 2017 was Taillon's first season in the starting rotation. He was placed on the disabled list in May as he underwent surgery for testicular cancer. He was activated in June. In 25 starts, he pitched to an 8–7 record and 4.44 ERA.
In early May of this year, Taillon was place in the injured list due to a right elbow flexor strain. He will be out at least four weeks. Taillon had a 101 ERA+ through his first seven starts. He'd recorded nearly four times as many strikeouts as walks, and had notched three quality starts -- third most on the staff.
