Pirates Discussion: The Tigers Come to Town For a Two Game Series

Published:

The Pittsburgh Pirates take on the Detroit Tigers tonight at 7:05 PM EST at PNC Park.

The Pirates enter the two-game series with a 24-28 record, and an eight game road trip starting on Thursday.

Jose Quintana will take the mound tonight, bringing his 2.32 ERA up against Detroit’s Tarik Skubal, who has a 2.15 ERA in 58.2 innings.

My guess is we will also see the debut of Travis Swaggerty.

We will post the lineups when they are announced. Until then, feel free to use the comments for all Pirates discussion.

UPDATE: Change for the Tigers

UPDATE #2: After a rain delay, the Tigers went back to their original starter. I feel like that’s something that Rob Manfred asked them to do because it makes zero sense like most of his decisions.
