Bryse Wilson return proves fruitful as Pirates beat Brewers, 7-4

PITTSBURGH — Bryse Wilson still faces a climb ahead of him to prove he can be a capable MLB starting pitcher, but Saturday was a step in the right direction.

The 24-year-old right-hander joined the Pirates last season at the trade deadline, sent over by the Atlanta Braves in the Richard Rodriguez deal. He pitched to below-average results last season but cratered in this one, with an 8.29 ERA in nine appearances entering Saturday.

The Pirates sent him down to Class AAA Indianapolis in late May. In his lone return to the majors between then and now, he gave up seven earned runs on 10 hits to the St. Louis Cardinals and was immediately sent back down.
