As we wind down our player review series, we come to a pitcher who has not had an easy road to the majors but finally got a brief taste of it in Wes Parsons. Parsons may not have the ceiling of many of the Braves’ top pitching prospects and he may not pitch for the team ever again, but what he has been able to accomplish is nonetheless remarkable.
Parsons was signed out as an undrafted free agent back in 2012 with the rumor being that a Braves official saw him pitch in a wood bat independent summer league of some kind and snatched him up.
