Quinn Mathews Bounces Back On Thursday With Six Shutout Innings
7 months agoSt. Louis Cardinals starting pitching prospect Quinn Mathews bounced back on Thursday with six shutout innings and allowed just three scattered hits with no free passes. He struck out six. In his previous start, he allowed a season-high five earned runs and five hits. Overall, the 23-year-old has looked quite strong in his first look at High-A with a 2.84 ERA, 0.68 WHIP, and 3:24 BB:K ratio. Mathews opened the season with Single-A but only needed to log 30 ⅔ innings to the tune of a 1.47 ERA and 0.82 WHIP to prove he was ready for High-A. MLB Pipeline projects the Stanford product to reach the majors next season. The southpaw is worth following closely in dynasty leagues as he has yet to hit a significant roadblock through his first season of professional ball and is showing that he can round back into form following a disappointing start.
