Jared Jones battles post-IL inconsistency ahead of a risky Coors Field matchup.
State of the Union: Jared Jones has flashed elite velocity since returning from a long IL stint, but his results remain uneven with a 6.32 ERA over his last four starts. He currently slots in as a back-end starter for the fourth-place Pirates, who are riding a two-game win streak. Jones is coming off a rough June 15 outing where he yielded five runs in four innings.
Under the Hood (ROS): His recent 1.64 WHIP indicates too much traffic, but our models project him to settle down and finish the year with a solid 4.05 ERA and 1.23 WHIP. This aligns with his strong 2024 rookie baseline where he posted a 1.21 WHIP and a stellar 9.92 K/9. Trust his high-strikeout upside long-term as his command stabilizes.
The Week Ahead & Verdict: Jones is scheduled to start on June 21 at Colorado. While opponent Michael Lorenzen has a highly vulnerable 7.38 ERA, pitching in the thin air of Coors Field is incredibly dangerous for a young pitcher still finding his command. We recommend benching him in this high-risk environment. Verdict: Sit.
