Jack Leiter struggled in his first few MLB starts but has since turned things around after being sent down to Triple-A. During a recent game against the Albuquerque Isotopes, Leiter had an outstanding performance, putting him in rare company.
Despite only pitching 3 2/3 innings, Leiter was almost untouchable, allowing just one run on one hit with one walk and 11 strikeouts. His pitching coach praised his performance, highlighting his 11 strikeouts as particularly impressive.
Leiter, the son of former MLB All-Star Al Leiter, has been on a hot streak in Triple-A, with four wins in his last eight starts. He has been dominant in his recent games, showcasing his skills with consistently strong performances.
With little left to prove in the minors, Leiter is a candidate for a promotion to the majors, especially with his team out of playoff contention. The talented pitcher has a successful collegiate career and has quickly risen through the minor leagues to showcase his potential in the MLB.
