Hurdle discusses Bucs starters
Pirates manager Clint Hurdle discussed the Bucs starting rotation:
On Paul Maholm: “There’s more there. I’d say he’s not happy. Nobody I talked to is happy. They’re excited about next year, but they want to improve.”
On James McDonald: “I’ve seen the kid, and he excites me. I know he had a good run after the trade.”
On Ross Ohlendorf: “I’ve got to believe he’s the best 1-11 pitcher in baseball.” Hurdle laughed and added, “Your numbers are over. You have another chance. Do something with it.”
