Jared Jones is getting pushed back a day and will make his next start Friday against the Angels. The Pirates are listing TBA for Thursday versus the Giants, but they could again use the Lake Bachar/Carmen Mlodzinski combo on four days’ rest that day.

The Pirates are at PNC Park looking to grab a win today.

Landen Roupp aims to build on his latest victory as San Francisco visits Jared Jones, who is trying to halt a seven-start slide in Wednesday's rematch with a host Pittsburgh squad riding a three-game winning streak.

Jared Jones allowed one run in five innings and took the loss against the Red Sox on Saturday. Jones gave up four hits, walked two and struck out seven. He fell to 2-5 with the loss. Jones bounced back with a solid effort after allowing eight earned runs in his last start.

With Jared Jones now scheduled to start Friday against the Angels, Pittsburgh suddenly has an opening Thursday against the Giants.
