Jared Jones Hit in Same Elbow

Pirates pitcher Jared Jones took a brutal line drive to the elbow — the same elbow he rehabbed from surgery — during his return to form, sparking immediate concern. While initial reports suggest no major damage and he’s lucky it wasn’t a fracture, the mental toll is real. Jones, who pitched three innings and struck out three before the hit, is now sidelined for further evaluation. His manager called the moment terrifying, especially after missing significant time last season. The Pirates hope he’s okay as they gear up for a crucial series, with his next start set for Saturday against the Reds. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
