Hurston Waldrep Records Quality Start
Hurston Waldrep allowed two runs on three hits and three walks across six innings against Triple-A Charlotte on Wednesday. He struck out six. The 23-year-old has strung back-to-back effective outings, giving up only four runs and allowing five hits in 11 1/3 innings while striking out 16. The former Florida pitcher made his MLB debut last season and struggled with 13 runs allowed in only seven innings. The right-hander's season-long numbers in 2025 are still poor, with a 5.77 ERA and an elevated 14.7% walk rate. While the Braves have dealt with some injuries in the rotation, it appears Waldrep needs more refinement in the minor leagues before being brought back to the majors. He is currently ranked as the 2nd overall prospect in the Braves system on MLB.com.
