Here’s a quick update on winter league action for Pittsburgh Pirates. The league in Puerto Rico begins tonight, which should add to the action here this winter. At least two Pirates, Bligh Madris and Ethan Paul, were already announced for the league, and more should follow.
In the Dominican on Friday night, Rodolfo Castro played third base and collected two hits, including a double. Those were his first two hits of the winter, but he was doing a good job of getting on base in his first four games, walking six times. He’s 2-for-13 with an RBI and a .400 OBP.
Enmanuel Mejia made his winter debut, and the man who allowed runs in just one game all season, allowed a run in his first winter inning. He gave up one run on two hits and a walk in one frame on Friday.
Christian Bethancourt went 0-for-3. He’s hitting .167/.167/.292 in seven games.
In Mexico, Randy Romero went 1-for-5 with a run scored and an RBI.He’s hitting .295/.375/.333 in 27 games.
We should have another article tomorrow, at least updating the Opening Day rosters in Puerto Rico, along with any action that went on tonight.
