Anthony Nunez Headed to Triple-A Norfolk
Cedric Mullins trade with the Mets. The 24-year-old was originally drafted out of high school as a shortstop back in 2019, but has converted himself into a pitcher, and it appears to have been the right move. In 33 games between High-A and Double-A this season, the right-hander has posted a 1.52 ERA, 0.78 WHIP, and has struck out a whopping 40.0 percent of the batters he's faced. That's good for 62 strikeouts in 41 innings pitched. There is a small issue with an elevated walk rate of 11.0 percent, but if he's striking that many out, it may not matter. Without a dedicated closer in Baltimore, Nunez is a name to keep an eye on down the stretch in case he gets the call.
