INJURIES

Earns win in relief Ashcraft (2-0) allowed one earned run on five hits and no walks while striking out two across 2.2 innings Saturday against the Mets.
Impact Ashcraft entered the game following a lengthy rain delay, relieving Bailey Falter. Ashcraft didn't showcase the same dominance that he has at different points in a similar long-relief role, but he largely worked his way out of trouble in both the third and fourth frames. He had just shifted into a traditional starting role, though this outing could push him back into the bullpen for the time being.

Goes three frames in first start Ashcraft did not factor into the decision in Monday's 5-4 win at Milwaukee, allowing one hit and no walks over three scoreless innings with two strikeouts.
Impact The 25-year-old rookie made all seven of his previous appearances out of the bullpen, so he wasn't expected to go deep in this contest. Ashcraft managed to stymy the Brewers lineup across his 35 total pitches, 28 of which were strikes. Prior to being called up May 26, the right-hander had started 10 games for Triple-A Indianapolis, so it is possible that the Pirates are seeking to incorporate Ashcraft into the big league rotation. Through 14.2 total major-league innings, he has pitched to a 1.23 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 12:6 K:BB.

Brewers play the Pirates in first of 3-game series

The Milwaukee Brewers begin a three-game series at home against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Monday
JUNE 23, 2025 • Associated Press
Set for first career start Monday Achcraft will draw the start on the mound in Monday's series opener against the Brewers, Colin Beazley of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Impact Ashcraft will make his first career major-league start against a red-hot Brewers lineup that has averaged 10.75 runs per contest over a four-game winning streak entering the series. The right-hander has produced a 1.54 ERA and 1.29 WHIP with 10 strikeouts over 11.2 innings in seven appearances out of the bullpen this season. Ashcraft threw a career-high 40 pitches in his latest appearance Friday versus the Rangers, so he will likely be limited to a few innings on the mound Monday.

Earns first win Ashcraft (1-0) allowed one hit and two walks with no strikeouts across 1.1 scoreless innings to earn the win Sunday against the Phillies.
Impact This marked Ashcraft's fourth appearance in the majors and came in a high-leverage spot. He relieved Paul Skenes in the eighth inning of a 1-1 game, and he remained in for the ninth after the Pirates took the lead. One of the walks was intentional, but this still wasn't one of Ashcraft's more dominant appearances as he failed to generate a swinging strike and also allowed some hard contact. Despite that, he managed to earn the first win of his big-league career.

Three shutout innings in debut Ashcraft allowed two hits and one walk while striking out one across three scoreless innings Monday against the Diamondbacks.
Impact Ashcraft was promoted to the majors Monday and immediately made his debut working out of the bullpen. He pitched with the Pirates down by five but managed a scoreless outing and preserved the team's bullpen. Ashcraft may remain in a long-relief role for the time being, but he should have a chance to enter the rotation at some point during the summer as one of the team's best prospects.
