Pirates' Drew Hutchison: In rotation mix

Hutchison will battle Steven Brault, Trevor Williams and Tyler Glasnow for the No. 5 spot in the rotation, the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports.

Analysis:

GM Neal Huntington went out of his way to compliment Hutchison after the team acquired the 26-year-old for Francisco Liriano and two prospects at last year's trade deadline. As a result, the former Toronto hurler will get every chance to prove his worth. He struggled in six games with the Bucs late last year and compiled a 4.50 ERA and 1.44 WHIP in 36 innings for Triple-A Indianapolis.
