Atlanta Braves Left Hander Kolby Allard

Who Is He?

Kolby was drafted out of high school in California by the Braves #14 in the first round in the 2015 draft, the Braves first selection of the draft. He was sent to GCL after some time with an injured back, and he pitched tremendously in his three appearances for the GCL squad, going 6 innings, allowing just 1 hit, striking out 12.

This season, Allard’s now made two starts with Rome, and while the ERA isn’t pretty at 14.14, he’s thrown 7 innings, allowing 13 hits while posting a 4/7 BB/K ratio in 7 innings, so he’s getting good strike out numbers.
