Note: Left-handed starting pitcher -- Taylor Varnell, Winston-Salem (13 games), Birmingham (six games): After easing into the season with several relief appearances, Varnell quickly became the ace of the Dash rotation. The 6-foot-1 hurler notched a 1.96 ERA through his first 46 innings across 11 games (nine starts). And though he ran into trouble in July, his progress to that point earned him a spot in Birmingham.
Varnell was not able to find the same consistency at Double-A, but thanks to the strong start, his composite 3.60 ERA was one of the best in the system. Across the two levels, Varnell went 5-6 with 80 strikeouts and 28 walks in 75 frames over 19 games (16 starts).
Following the conclusion of the season, the 26-year-old announced he was retiring to spend more time with his family.
