"Lucas Braun gets his third start in Triple-A where he has looked very strong in two starts. In his last start, on September 12th, Lucas navigated six innings against the Nashville Sounds and gave up just two hits and one earned run. While expectations for Lucas were very high coming into the season, and he hasn't quite lived up to those pre-season expectations, he's still had a very strong season and has improved every year he's been in minor league baseball (three years)."
"Burrows will be facing a Stripers lineup that struggled in their 8-1 defeat yesterday. Despite six hits, Gwinnett went just 1-for-3 with runners in scoring position and stranded six. After starting off on fire for the Stripers, Jesús Bastidas has cooled down significantly, now down to a .723 OPS on the season with Gwinnett. The Stripers will need him, and David McCabe to get on track if they are to close out the season on a positive note."
Lucas Braun will make his third Triple-A start after two strong outings, including six innings, two hits and one earned run on September 12. Braun entered the season with high expectations and has improved each year over three minor-league seasons. Beau Burrows has pitched across four levels this season and will make his first start, but he has struggled in 15 Triple-A appearances with a 5.68 ERA. Gwinnett lost 8-1 yesterday, went 1-for-3 with runners in scoring position and stranded six. Jesús Bastidas has cooled to a .723 OPS and, along with David McCabe, needs to rebound for Gwinnett to finish the season positively.
