Braves To Promote Pitching Prospect Kolby Allard!
Allard will make his major league debut on Tuesday against the Miami Marlins.
According to Zach Dillard of Fox Sports South:
Allard, a 6-foot-1 southpaw out of San Clemente, Calif., owns a career 2.96 ERA in 353 career innings as a professional, striking out 323 batters with 103 walks. He’s a three-pitch pitcher with great command of a fastball that typically sits in the low-90s while mixing in a plus changeup and curveball. Allard responded to an aggressive push up through the farm system by posting a 3.27 FIP at Double-A Mississippi last year then nearly matching the mark for Triple-A Gwinnett in 2018.

Allard will debut tomorrow as the Braves prepare to essentially use a six-man rotation without ever simultaneously carrying six starting pitchers https://t.co/QadKOeg7fq
