Jarrod Parker is one of the many young arms that the Athletics have in their starting rotation. He could be a potential ace for the team in the next couple of years. He has won  seven games for the club this season to go along with a 4.02 ERA and a WHIP of 1.23 in 132 innings pitched. The young right-hander has struck out 90 batters while walking 49. Parker is limiting opposing batters to a .235 average and is holding left-handers to a.247 average. He is very good at keeping teams off balance with runners in scoring position, as indicated by teams just having a .214 average in this situation.
