The Pirates have no plans to recall Taillon for a start Wednesday, his next scheduled turn in Triple-A. "He's well ahead of our internal projections of where we thought he'd be," Gm Neal Huntington told DK Pittsburgh Sports on Sunday. "He's getting closer. We're not 100 percent comfortable (moving him into the rotation) at this point, but we're getting close."
