Harrell pitched a complete game against the Padres in his last start, but he's a minor-league veteran who has a long history of poor strikeout rates, so I would hope the Pirates could get to him.

This is the Pirates' new-look lineup now that Jose Tabata is gone. Walker moves up to second in the order. Burnett's name is actually spelled "Burnette" on the lineup card, which is a mistake, unless the Pirates have promoted State College Spike Jake Burnette all the way to the majors.
UPDATE 5:20: Pedro Alvarez has been pulled from tonight's lineup. Here it is after the change:
