Jared Jones has been a hot topic among Pirates fans, and for good reason. As we look ahead to the 2025 season, the conversation around his potential is heating up. While many are excited about his fastball and slider, there are some bold predictions floating around that might be a bit too optimistic.
Is it fair to expect Jared to develop into a top-tier starter alongside Paul Skenes? Or should we temper our expectations and view him as a solid, yet not spectacular, member of the rotation? The reality is that while he has shown promise, his pitch mix still needs refinement. His curveball, which has been hit hard, raises questions about his ability to consistently get outs at the MLB level.
What do you think? Can Jared Jones evolve his game to become a reliable starter, or will he struggle to find his footing in a rotation that includes a generational talent like Skenes? How do you see his development trajectory playing out this season?
Let’s discuss! What are your thoughts on his potential, and what adjustments do you think he needs to make to solidify his role in the Pirates' future?
