9th HR and 25 RBI’s and not even through 18 games yet...

Not that I agree with it but pretty sure former head Braves scout Brian Bridges that drafted him compared him to Mantle as well. Even with the high K rate, him leading AA in hits is impressive especially w/ him being only 20.

8 HR’s in his first 16 career games

Muller is dominating AA this month. 21 yrs old listed at 6’7 250 now and his fastball has been up to 99 this year. Had a ton of walks early on but his command has been much better lately and he’s been un-hittable all year. 3-0, 33.1 IP, 21 H, 3 ER, 11 BB, 33 K 0.81 ERA, 0.96 WHIP in May

We’ll see but I think he will be a 20/20 guy with potential for more. Braves scouts absolutely love him and he is way ahead of Ender at the same stage.

His strikeout rate has improved in the 2nd half pretty much every season in the minors too outside of last year(he has a knee injury last year that affected him as well). Could see him having high SO’s rates early in career but I feel confident he’ll be able to adjust with more experience.
