Jack Leiter Deals In First Start After Break At Triple-A
3 months agoTexas Rangers pitching prospect Jack Leiter was sharp in his first start after the All-Star break going 4 2/3 innings allowing no runs on three hits and two walks with seven strikeouts for Triple-A Round Rock. The 25-year-old right-hander lowered his minor-league season ERA to 3.59 with a 1.29 WHIP. Leiter struggled in his appearances with Texas this season, but the Rangers' No. 5 prospect has been largely effective at Triple-A this season. He is still a prospect worth keeping tabs on if he can continue to pitch well at Round Rock and head back to the Rangers with his confidence high.
