Didier Fuentes Nearing Return to MLB Following Scratch From Triple-A Start
Atlanta Braves right-handed starting pitcher Didier Fuentes is on the verge of a return to the major leagues. On Sunday, the young right-hander saw his Triple-A start scratched as the Braves are entering a stretch of 10 games in 10 straight days. While a promotion has yet to be confirmed, managers should pay close attention to his status over the coming days, as a return could be imminent. Fuentes broke camp with the MLB roster but was deployed in a long relief role before being optioned back to Triple-A to further increase his workload. With Triple-A, Fuentes has looked quite comfortable as of late, logging 16 2/3 innings (three starts), while allowing just four runs and posting a 20:6 K:BB. Last summer, Fuentes made his MLB debut but looked quite overmatched, allowing 20 runs over 13 innings. For now, Fuentes is a viable stash option in all 12-team leagues.
