some good news. Article discusses each teams' "hottest" pitching prospect.
Lara has allowed one or zero earned runs in five of his last six outings for High-A Wilmington, and after being particularly vulnerable to the long ball earlier in the season, it's a good sign that he's allowed only one dinger in that span, helping result in a 2.92 ERA. If you want to blame Wilmington's pitcher-friendly conditions for those numbers alone, it should be noted that the six starts were split evenly between home and road. Lara has long been about projection more than present stuff with a mid-90s fastball and fringy slider and change, but this run gives more optimism about his starting chances.
