Braves Fall League Recap: Sinnard spectacular in debut
"The Arizona Fall League chugs on, and Luke Sinnard proved across two starts why Battery Power is so high on him heading into next season. Sinnard looked impressive, throwing a lot of strikes with a fastball that averaged over 95 mph, and his progress this season looks to make him a real option in Atlanta in 2026. Fall Stats: 6 G, 6-19, 2B, 8 BB, .316/.536/.368"
"Nacho Alvarez Jr. has been making consistent contributions to the Desert Dogs, but he's doing so more with his eye than with his bat. Alvarez has drawn six walks in his past four contests, helping him to get on base in more than half of his plate appearances this fall. Unfortunately his contact has been less than stellar and he is settling for singles when he does manage to find holes."
"It was a mere single game sample for Trent Buchanan, and boy was it a terrible appearance for him. Buchanan came in for the seventh inning of a seven-inning contest to protect a one run lead, but he quickly was chased from the game after blowing the save. He walked the first man then issued a hard double before hitting a batter to load the bases."
Luke Sinnard delivered two strong starts in the Arizona Fall League, showcasing a fastball that averaged over 95 mph and consistently throwing strikes, boosting his prospect status for a possible Atlanta role in 2026. Nacho Alvarez Jr. has reached base frequently due to walks, drawing six walks in four games, but lacks consistent contact and is often limited to singles. Trent Buchanan endured a poor single-game outing, blowing a save by issuing multiple walks, hitting a batter, and surrendering key doubles that allowed the opposition to take the lead. Results for other prospects have been mixed.
