It was a pretty huge milestone for the Ben Cherington regime, as Carmen Mlodzinski became the first player drafted by them to reach the major leagues.
The first draft under Cherington was something we have never seen before, as it was condensed down to just five rounds due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Mlodzinski was the 31st overall pick, taken out of South Carolina. He worked his way up the minors level by level, starting this season in Triple-A Indianapolis, also making the move to the bullpen.
When taking a little bit more of a closer look at his numbers in Indianapolis, the success of his sweeper shows just why it was the right move for him.
