Players who have played for Pirates and Rockies | MLB Immaculate Grid September 6

Although not a top MLB name, Cole Tucker has gained attention in recent times for being romantically linked to actress and model Vanessa Hudgens. A 2014 first-round selection by the Pittsburgh Pirates, Tucker hit .211/.259/.314 with five home runs and 35 RBIs between 2020 and 2022 for the Pirates.

In late 2022, he signed a minor league deal with the Rockies. So far this season, Tucker has gone 3-for-8 in three games for the Rockies, and continues to aspire to become a full-time MLB star.

Current Kansas City Royals pitcher Jordan Lyles has played for both teams since entering the MLB 13 years ago. After a disappointing first three seasons with the Houston Astros, Lyles joined the Rockies in 2014, but was never able to record an ERA below 4, prompting a 2017 trade to the Padres.

Lyles made 17 appearances for the 2019 Pirates, posting a 5.36 ERA alongside a record of 5-7. This year, his 15 accredited losses for KC lead the league in the category.

6-foot-3 right-hander Chad Kuhl was a ninth-round draft pick by the Pittsburgh Pirates back in 2015. In his rookie year of 2016, Kuhl posted a 4.20 ERA alongside a 4-5 record. In his four seasons in Pittsburgh, Kuhl failed to record an ERA lower than 4.

In 2022, he was traded to the Rockies, posting a 5.72 ERA and a record of 6-11. After another debacle, Kuhl signed with the Washington Nationals ahead of the 2023 season. Currently, the 30-year-old is nursing a dismal 8.45 ERA and a record of 0-4.

1995 was a serious year for Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Denny Neagle. That season, the 6-foot-4 southpaw led the league in starts with 31, as well as innings pitching, logging over 209, and batters faced with 876.

Although he would win an All-Star distinction for his pitching, as well as a Cy Young consideration in 1996, by the time Neagle joined the Rockies as a 32-year-old in 2001, things would not be the same. He retired in 2003, after posting a 5.57 ERA across 72 games for the Colorado Rockies.
