We are two weeks into the Minor League season, so I would like to begin a new feature here at UTRMinors.com…..Two-Start Treasures. I thought it would be fun to include with my tracking the UTR pitchers who made two starts within the week and dominated. I used to do this during our time providing content to MLBDepthCharts.com (now RosterResources.com) when it was just a Pitcher of the Week feature. Now that I throw a list of pitchers at our readers each day, really good back-to-back outings could get lost in the mix. Plus, a pitcher might have been solid in two starts, but didn’t make the daily mention due to being bumped.
So, let’s highlight the two-starters from April 10th to 17th. As always, I’ll throw in the best Relief performance for the week too.
