I will be curious to see how the Braves' DSL and GCL entries do this year and see how much damage the international signing restrictions will inflict. I can see the Braves spending the last ten rounds of their draft on low-ceiling college seniors just to fill out the rosters for the GCL and Danville.

[CJ9]

Muller’s at it again: 6 IP, 2 H, 2 R, 1 BB, 9 K. 73 pitches and 46 strikes, still going strong. Gave up a two-run homer to Alex Kiriloff and that’s been all.

[CJ9]

Touched 97 multiple times while striking out the side in the sixth.

[CJ9]

Waters is also 4-4 with a single, double and two triples.

[Heyward]

Waters is insane.

[msstate7]

Is muller becoming our best pitching prospect?

[Deester11]

Is muller becoming our best pitching prospect?

Muller is holding his velocity later in games. Huge development for him. He's always worked hard and I think he'll be in the conversation of best pitching prospect at the end of the year. At least I hope so.

[Jaw]

He seems to have decent control too, somewhat rare in the Braves system.

Going to have to make room for anderson and Muller by mid season 2020.

If folty bounces back, which i believe he already has, we should pull a tampa and trade him for a bunch of prospects.

Don’t forget Withrow. He didn’t allow a single baserunner yesterday!

[nsacpi]

wondering if Demeritte is being tested to see how he can handle leadoff

[nsacpi]

Dayton has pitched well.

[50PoundHead]

He seems to have decent control too, somewhat rare in the Braves system.

Two of Muller's walks were back-to-back in the 6th inning when his pitch count was getting up there. If you look at his walk numbers from his first few starts until now, the improvement is marked.
