Atlanta Braves pitching prospect Samuel Strickland was selected in the 19th round of the 2021 draft. The Samford product was a left-hander with upside, but at his draft slot, he certainly wasn't a big name. So far, it seems like the Braves might have found a promising prospect with their late-round choice. Strickland has posted solid stats while working primarily out of the rotation, initiating relatively weak contact and a low walk rate. This past week was especially noteworthy for the 23-year-old. During his start on Saturday, the southpaw lasted eight whole innings, surrendering zero runs, two hits, and one walk while striking out a whopping 11 batters. It was an impressive, much-needed gem from Strickland after he allowed eight runs through two innings during his last outing on July 31.--Andersen Pickard - RotoBallerRead More News
