"The Braves drafted Sinnard in the third round of the 2024 draft, using the 99th overall pick to take the righty out of Indiana University. When the Braves took Sinnard, there was a bit of a mixed bag when it comes to reactions. On the one hand, his 6'8, 250-pound frame provided some tantalizing potential, but the college results just didn't back those hopes up, as Sinnard posted an ERA of 4.27 across 16 starts with the Hoosiers in 2023."
"Sinnard made his first professional appearance on April 8, getting the start with Augusta in what was essentially an opener-style outing as he only went two-thirds of an inning. From that point forward, Sinnard continued to go deeper into games and eventually made seven starts - during which he spun a 0.92 ERA with the GreenJackets. His best low-A performance came on May 14 where he spun six scoreless innings while striking out nine and allowing just three hits and one walk on the night."
Sinnard was selected by the Braves in the third round (99th overall) out of Indiana University. He measured 6'8" and 250 pounds but posted a 4.27 ERA across 16 college starts in 2023, while scouts liked his underlying metrics. Tommy John surgery delayed his pro debut and prompted a cautious ramp in 2025. Sinnard debuted April 8 with Augusta, worked into deeper outings, and posted a 0.92 ERA across seven Low-A starts, highlighted by six scoreless innings with nine strikeouts on May 14. A promotion to Rome produced an uneven first start before he began to settle into High-A competition.
