The Pittsburgh Pirates have announced that starting pitcher Jameson Taillon was treated this morning at Allegheny General Hospital for suspected testicular cancer.

The Pirates say further testing is required before a charted course is determined.

Taillon released a message on twitter moments ago.

We wish Jameson a speedy and full recovery.
