Is Robby Snelling Still a Top Pickup After Shaky MLB Debut?
Miami Marlins starting pitcher Robby Snelling took the loss in his first MLB start on Friday against the Nationals. He worked five innings and gave up three runs on five hits and four walks while throwing 86 pitches. After starting the game with an impressive strikeout of James Wood, he gave up all three runs in the first inning, including a two-run blast from Jacob Young. Snelling settled in and didn't give up a run in the next four frames, but he also didn't have any strikeouts during those innings. The 22-year-old lefty had a sparkling 1.86 ERA and 44 strikeouts in 29 innings at Triple-A, and he still brings a high ceiling and excellent strikeout potential for as long as he stays in the starting rotation. His next turn lines up to be Thursday in Minnesota, and he remains a great option going forward, even though the results weren't ideal in his debut.
