Miguel Yajure starting on the mound for Pittsburgh Monday

The Pittsburgh Pirates will give Miguel Yajure the starting pitcher nod for Monday's series opener with the Washington Nationals.

What It Means:

The team recalled Yajure from Triple-A Indianapolis earlier in the day and will now give him the start for tonight's game against the Nationals. The RHP has pitched 10.1 innings with the Pirates this season and has thrown 4 strikeouts with 6 walks, and has hit 2 batters.

Yajure has a $5,500 salary on FanDuel as he makes his first start of the 2022 season. Our models project him for 11 fantasy points, with 2.2 strikeouts and 2.2 earned runs in 3.1 innings.
