Kyle Lobstein

The Pirates hard throwing left-handed Kyle Lobstein Is 2-0 so far this year.  Lobstein is making the most of his chance with the team after coming off Tommy John surgery.  He has made some solid outings in the W-L column that can not be denied.  His ERA of 4.79 could use some work, but he does have a solid 14 strikeouts.  Lobstein could use some of that Ray Searage magic we have seen him sprinkle one pitchers in the past. The potential is there with him, his average fastball speed 92.50.  Hopefully Lobstein continues to build upon his start.
