While increasing the confidence the Braves have in their pitching depth, Huascar Ynoa has extended the value Atlanta managed to gain from Jaime García.
Ynoa furthered his roster bid with the three-plus-inning effort he provided in an 8-5 win over the Twins on Friday afternoon at CenturyLink Sports Park. The Braves right-hander pitched around a couple of jams before showing signs of fatigue during Minnesota’s five-run fourth.
After the Twins loaded the bases with nobody out in the fourth, Ynoa was lifted in favor of Phil Pfeifer, who retired just three of the six batters he faced.
