Before the start of the 2019 season, I did quite a few of these, focusing on some Boston Red Sox prospects. It only felt right that I started the 2020 batch off with El Idolo himself, Bryan Mata.
As you could probably guess, Mata was one of the players highlighted last season. Not only did the right-handed pitcher definitely have a great year, he surpassed expectations.
In 10 starts (51 1/3 innings) for Advanced-A, Mata posted an absolutely nuts 1.75 ERA. He also had 52 strikeouts and a .209 BAA.
That led to a promotion to Double-A.
