Episode Details

Kade Anderson, Mariners pitching prospect, is making waves in his early pro days. The 21-year-old lefty dominated in his second start for Double-A Arkansas, tossing five scoreless innings with no hits allowed. He racked up eleven strikeouts, walked just two, and hit 95 mph on the fastball for his first professional win. In his debut, he impressed with four shutout innings, six strikeouts, and one walk. Through two outings, hes gone nine innings without a run, allowing only five hits, seventeen strikeouts, and three walks total. Fans and scouts are buzzing about Anderson, who was the number three overall pick last summer out of LSU. He led the Tigers to the national title, snagged College World Series Most Outstanding Player honors, and earned Baseball America Pitcher of the Year after leading the NCAA with one hundred eighty strikeouts over one hundred nineteen innings. Meanwhile, leadoff hitter Brendan Donovan sat out Fridays opener against Houston due to an illness, but the manager called it minor and Donovans been hot with a three sixteen average and over one thousand OPS in eleven games. These young arms like Anderson signal bright times ahead for Seattles rotation, while the lineup shakes off small hiccups like Donovans bug.
