Musgrove Shines in Second Triple-A Start

What throws pretty hard and doesn't walk anyone? Joe Musgrove

In his second start for Triple-A Fresno, Musgrove allowed two runs on a two-run home run but was dominant the rest of the game. Seven strikeouts in six innings without a walk. He had an 8/3 GO/FO ratio and needed just 82 pitches. Of the 82 pitches, 61 were strikes. He hasn't skipped a beat in Triple-A and as he gets stretched out to higher pitch counts, I expect the Astros to be calling his name to the majors.
