The Carolina on the Southern side
Kolby Allard's line - 6 IP, 7 H, 3 R, 2 BB, 8 K

He may never become the ace the Braves expected he'd become but the kid is a tank. This is his 10th straight (major league) quality start where he's gone 6 IP or deeper into the game.

The 2 home runs he gave up certainly hurt his FIP but overall, he's only given up 5 jacks in 81 IP this season which is a great HR/9 rate. He's never given up more than 3 walks in a game so he's improved on his command/control this season but unfortunately his strikeout rate continues to drop each season and it probably has something to do with the fact that his fastball velocity has gone way down. I haven't seen him pitch lately but last I remember his fastball sat in the upper 80's and occasionally hit 90. When he was first drafted he had a 90-94 MPH fastball (apparently according to his scouting report he could reach back for 95-97 at full effort but I've never seen it) and it remained around there throughout his 2015-2016 seasons but then in 2017 there was a huge drop off for some reason.

Bingoooooooooo!
