Noah Schultz Allows Six Runs In Triple-A Debut
Noah Schultz took the loss against Triple-A Gwinnett on Thursday, allowing six runs on eight hits and one walk while striking out five over 5 1/3 innings. The 21-year-old still generated 16 swinging strikes on 43 swings and allowed only two extra-base hits. He did give up a good amount of hard contact, but it wasn't all bad. Schultz held a 3.34 ERA in 56 2/3 innings at Double-A Birmingham but also owned an elevated 14.4 percent walk rate, which led to a 1.59 WHIP. The 6-foot-10 left-hander has serious upside but needs to improve his command as he ages. Schultz is currently ranked as the No. 13 overall prospect on MLB.com and likely won't be a call-up candidate until next season.
