MLB Pipeline Names Hunter Dobbins Red Sox's Top Pitching Prospect Of 2024
1 month agoRight-handed pitcher Hunter Dobbins was named MLB Pipeline's top pitching prospect of the Boston system of the 2024 season. Dobbins opened the summer by getting his second extended look at Double-A ball. Through 105 frames, Dobbins posted a solid 3.17 ERA and 1.23 WHIP with a 39:98 BB:K ratio. This was a nice improvement compared to the 4.27 ERA and 1.33 WHIP he held at Double-A in 2023. The Texas Tech product then logged his final 20 2/3 innings of the campaign at the Triple-A level and held a strong 2.61 ERA and a 1.40 WHIP. He struck out 22 batters and served up just nine free passes. Given his gradual improvement at Double-A, fantasy managers in deeper formats should continue monitoring Dobbins at the start of the 2025 season. He may only need a slight fine-tuning at Triple-A before reaching the big leagues.
