The Atlanta Braves have had a long history of great pitchers that have come up through their organization. A lot of the time there is a certain amount of hype that comes with those prospects once they are drafted.
One guy that hasn't come in with that much hype, and looks like he could be a pitcher that continues the tradition, is Huascar Ynoa.
Ynoa has returned from the Injured List and seemingly is picking back up where he left off.
In Ynoa's two starts since returning, he's thrown 11 1/3 innings and only given up seven hits. He's struck out 13 batters and walked two while allowing three earned runs.
Joe Patrick, of 92-9 the Game, joined The Jon Chuckery Show to talk about the effect Ynoa has had on the team since he's returned.
"He is looking phenomenal," Patrick said. In his last two starts he averaging over 10 strikeouts per 9 innings.
