Rogers Hornsby 2.0

[z28jd]

The Pirates have been pretty good compared to the rest of the league when it comes to TJS. Unfortunately, they got hit pretty hard this year with Taillon and another kid named Clay Holmes, who could have made a name for himself this year. I went to three of his games last year and he looked better each time. Big kid, could throw 95 and has nice secondary stuff, so that was a big blow too.

As that chart above shows, the amount of surgeries has leveled off around the league, but they are going to happen, even with modern training and technology. Taillon is a great kid, smart and hardworking with big potential and still very young, so I expect him to bounce back and this should just be a minor setback in the overall grand scheme of things.
