Brandon Pfaadt News
Arizona Diamondbacks rookie right-hander Brandon Pfaadt is starting Game 3 of the World Series on Monday against the Texas Rangers. Pfaadt had a 5.72 ERA during the regular season in 19 games (18 starts), but he's peaking in his first postseason and has allowed only two runs in his last three playoff starts. The 25-year-old led the minors in strikeouts with 218 last year and was ranked the No. 33 prospect in all of baseball in May. In his MLB debut on May 3, Pfaadt was bashed for seven earned runs on nine hits (four home runs) while walking one and striking out three in 4 2/3 innings against the Rangers. After being sent to the minors for the second time, Pfaadt moved his position on the mound from the third-base side to the first-base side. The young hurler also has incorporated a sinker since his first stint in the bigs earlier this year. The two changes have helped his fastball and sweeper become more effective weapons.
Arizona Diamondbacks rookie right-hander Brandon Pfaadt had a pretty solid Game 7 start against the Philadelphia Phillies on Tuesday night in the National League Championship Series, all things considered. In four innings of work, Pfaadt gave up two earned runs on four hits (one homer) while walking two and striking out seven for a no-decision. Pfaadt kept the D-backs in the game and held down the offensive juggernaut of the Phillies for a 4-2 win to send Arizona to their first World Series since 2001. The 25-year-old has been a work in progress in his first MLB season, but he's peaking at the right time and has struck out 11.9 hitters per nine innings in his first 16 2/3 playoff innings. The Snakes can only hope he can keep this up against the Texas Rangers in the Fall Classic.
Arizona Diamondbacks rookie right-hander Brandon Pfaadt is set to start Game 7 of the National League Championship Series on Tuesday against the Philadelphia Phillies. Pfaadt will become just the fifth rookie to start a winner-take-all Game 7 in the LCS. And dating back to the beginning of the modern World Series in 1903, only 13 rookies have started a decisive Game 7. Pfaadt was ranked as the No. 59 overall prospect in baseball entering the 2023 season. He struggled in the regular season, posting a 5.72 ERA while giving up 22 home runs in 19 games. However, the 25-year-old struck out a career-high nine batters in 5 2/3 scoreless innings in Game 3 of the NLCS against the Phillies. Can Pfaadt do it again, this time in one of the most hostile postseason environments in baseball with a trip to the World Series on the line?
