So that could be good news for a 4-1-2, 4-12 first pitch for a game that you can hear right here on 93.7 The Fan as Mitch Keller will be on the mound for the Buccos against the Baltimore Orioles.
Matt Clement with us as we tease to a guy who had a really good first start, Matt.
Braxton Ashcraft, who I think can truly be a pitcher for them that explodes in a way where solid fastball, not 100, but still throwing right around 97.
I didn't know he had that type of stuff in him.
Good curveball, good delivery.
I don't see why his upside can't be as a No.
2 starting pitcher in their rotation, even having the high upside of a Bubba Chandler and the types of arms that they have with Jared Jones coming back and the sustained success of Mitch Keller.
He went six, three strikeouts, four walks, four hits, allowed two runs against the Reds, both runs coming in the fourth inning.
That was on Monday in that game.
He has the potential.
This whole rotation pretty much has the potential to make this, I would say, a top five rotation in the game.
The leaders in the clubhouse, according to DraftKings, for Rookie of the Year, Sal Stewart of the Reds right now is number one, followed by J.J.
Weatherholt.
J.J.
Weatherholt go up against Butler a couple times, I'm sure.
Connor Griffin, who hasn't even debuted yet, plus 600 odds.
He's fourth.
Who's third?
Nolan McLean.
But I don't even see Bubba Chandler on this list.
