Jared Jones Shut Down For Six Weeks
Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Jared Jones (elbow) will be shut down from throwing for the next six weeks. The good news is, Jones won't require surgery, so it doesn't appear he's in jeopardy of having a season-ending injury. The right-hander will need to build up his arm strength and stamina, so fantasy managers might not see Jones until June. Honestly, it's too early for a set timetable, but fantasy managers should prepare to be without Jones for at least a month and a half. The Pirates haven't said who will take his spot in the rotation, but Bubba Chandler and Thomas Harrington could possibly get the call to the big leagues early in the season.
