What a week for the Atlanta Braves minor-league affiliates. The four teams went a combined 16-8 and we saw some impressive, and exciting, debuts from pitching prospects Freddy Tarnok and Jared Johnson.
Obviously, with a combined record of 16-8 there was plenty of performances that stood out last week. Before we jump into next week’s slate — one in which the young Braves battle some of the top teams in their respective leagues — here are three prospects from each level that stood out.
Augusta:
- Joey Estes, SP: 5.2 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 11 K
- Vaughn Grissom, 3B/2B: 8-for-24
- Jared Johnson, SP: 2.
