Tyler Glasnow Strikes Out 14 Rangers On Monday
4 years agoTampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Tyler Glasnow has been electric so far this year, and on Monday against the Texas Rangers he turned in his best start yet. He pitched 7 2/3 scoreless innings and allowed two hits and one walk while striking out 14. He now has a 0.46 ERA, 0.51 WHIP and 42.6% strikeout rate through three starts. Glasnow has introduced a slider into his arsenal and has gotten great results from it. He's thrown it 30.4% of the time, and the pitch has generated a 38.1% whiff rate. His curveball has still remained his most dominant pitch, however, generating a 57.1% whiff rate. Glasnow looks like one of the best pitchers in the majors right now. He'll look to stay hot on Saturday when he faces the New York Yankees.
