Episode Details

Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Chicago White Sox by Tony T.

Curtis is listed for the assignment but has not started in his three appearances, making an opener or bulk-pitching structure the safer description. His 1.64 ERA and 0.82 WHIP come from a very small sample, while a 15.4% walk rate and 3.45 FIP warn against treating the surface results as established. Martin supplies the conventional starter workload with 25 starts and a 4.13 ERA, plus better strikeout, walk and ground-ball rates.
