Francisco Liriano is back from his Christmas day broken hand incident. In 5 games with the Pirates this season he's pitched 29 innings and has 39 strikeouts, including seven in a row Saturday night. His ERA is 2.17. His record is 3-2, but the Pirates aren't scoring him many runs. Saturday night was a good example. He gave up just one run in 6 innings but the Pirates were shutout.
It's still too early to tell if the "old" Francisco is back, but at least he's doing well for the moment.
