Tucker Davidson should have been pitching for the Atlanta Braves sooner this season.
Maybe he hasn’t got enough “stuff” for the scouts. Maybe he’s not the prototypical size. All I know is that in a season where the Atlanta Braves have been desperate for starting pitching, there’s a kid who just gets people out that hasn’t been given his chance.
That changes tonight when southpaw Tucker Davidson starts against the Boston Red Sox, and by our reckoning, it’s about darned time.
