Ferguson, who made his big league debut with the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2018, pitched in a total of 263 games with a 3.68 ERA with 19-13 wins, 6 saves and 51 holds.

In the 2024 season, he played for the New York Yankees and Houston Astros, with a 4.64 ERA with one win, four losses, one save and 11 holds in 62 games.

Ferguson has been a bullpen pitcher since his big league debut. He only started 14 games, and most of them were "opener" who blocked short innings unlike ordinary starting pitchers.

However, Pittsburgh is considering using Ferguson as its starter. Pittsburgh has confirmed its starting lineup of three players: Paul Skenez, Mitch Keller, and Jared Jones.

ESPN said, "Pittsberg will test the possibility of starting by increasing Ferguson's fire extinguishing innings in spring camp."
