Chayce McDermott Continues To Record Strikeouts
7 months agoBaltimore Orioles pitching prospect Chayce McDermott has put together a strong season on the hill for Triple-A Norfolk. The club's No. 8 prospect has suited up for 10 games (nine games) and has been a strikeout machine for Norfolk. McDermott has a healthy 3.77 ERA and more impressive has 67 strikeouts in 43 innings. As dominant as the strikeouts are, McDermott has struggled with command at points with a 1.47 WHIP. However, over his last four starts, the right-hander has struck out 37 batters with just four walks, but 18 hits. McDermott has been able to get out of a lot of jams with his ability strike batters out and the Orioles could be calling his name soon with John Means (forearm) and Dean Kremer (oblique) both sidelined. McDermott offers strikeout potential, but is more of a wait-and-see prospect if promoted this season.
