Hurston Waldrep Dominates In First 2025 Start
Braves righthander Hurston Waldrep has long had excellent stuff, though its effectiveness has been muted by slipshod command and control. He had no such issues on Tuesday in his first start of the season. Facing Nashville, the Florida alum and 2023 first-rounder punched out seven Sounds and allowed just one run on three hits and a walk before yielding the hill to Brian Moran. Waldrep got five whiffs on 18 swings, including a pair apiece on his splitter and curveball. He threw three of his four pitches for strikes better than 70% of the time.
