6 years agoDetroit Tigers starting pitcher Spencer Turnbull took the hill for the Tigers' home opener on Thursday and led his team to victory. The rookie allowed three runs (two earned) in six innings of work and struck out 10 Royals in the process. He allowed just two walks, and threw 65 of his 91 total pitches for strikes. Turnbull has been a hot prospect in the minor league system for a few years now, and recorded a rate of 10.3 K/9 across 23 starts last year. He's still young, but the swing-and-miss potential is undeniable.--Tyler Germain - RotoBaller
