The Atlanta Braves bullpen struggled mightily at times in 2017. At times it was painful to sit and watch, at others we we’re okay. Consistency was the biggest thing with our relief pitchers this season. We’re all hoping that the roster in 2018 will be a little bit more stable.

One arm that could help this is left-handed pitcher Jacob Lindgren.

Lindgren was drafted by the New York Yankees in the 2nd round of the 2014 MLB draft out of Mississippi State University. In his first season as a pro, he struck out 48 hitters in 24.
