Giants' Braulio Lara: Uncharacteristically strong start to season

Lara threw two scoreless innings in Monday's loss to the Salt Lake Bees.

Lara has started the 2016 season strong, as he has thrown for a 1.29 ERA in five games while limiting opponents to a .130 batting average. However, it's far too early to assume that he's headed for the majors. Lara has a career 4.64 ERA in the minors and allowed 65 hits over just 50.1 innings across two levels last season.
