Post-Gazette Pirates insiders Noah Hiles and Andrew Destin discuss their key takeaways from the team's 7-6 win vs. the Blue Jays on Wednesday afternoon — after a lengthy rain delay — at LECOM Park in Bradenton, Fla. After hitting another home run Wednesday, what kind of power numbers can we expect from Oneil Cruz now that he is fully recovered from the leg injury that hampered him through the early parts of last season? Ryan Borucki also impressed again, pitching his fourth scoreless frame of the preseason. How might Borucki factor in to the Pirates bullpen, which features other lefties like Caleb Ferguson, Tim Mayza and Joey Wentz? Finally, the guys discuss Mitch Keller, as he became the first Pirates pitcher of the spring to go more than three innings. Is this a sign the starters are beginning to ramp up for the early weeks of the regular season? Our duo answers those questions and more.
