Braves' Lucas Harrell: Shuts out Twins for six innings in win

Harrell (2-2) threw six shutout innings and allowed just four hits and three walks with four strikeouts in a win Tuesday over Minnesota.

Analysis:

Harrell now has three quality starts in his five chances in the Braves rotation. Most notably, he has allowed just one home run in his 29.1 innings with Atlanta. Home runs were a big reason why he struggled in 2013 with Houston -- he allowed 20 in 153.2 innings, a 1.2 HR/9, and finished with a 5.86 ERA. Turner Field is a favorable park for pitchers, so it might be the perfect place for Harrell to resurrect his career.
