Winter Leagues: The Weekend Winter League Recap for the Pirates

Published:

Winter League results for the Pittsburgh Pirates over the last two days.

Saturday

In the Dominican, Rodolfo Castro went 0-for-4 with a walk and three strikeouts. He committed his third error at third base.

Yerry De Los Santos had a rough seventh inning, allowing three runs (one earned) on two hits and a walk, while recording two outs.

In Mexico, Randy Romero went 0-for-5, though his team still won 8-6 and he had an outfield assist.

Sunday

In the Dominican, Rodolfo Castro went 0-for-3 with a HBP, dropping him to a .233 average and an .855 OPS.

In Puerto Rico, Bligh Madris doubled and scored a run in his first at-bat, but then he left for a defensive replacement at the top of the next inning. He’s hitting .368 with a .994 OPS

Ethan Paul went 0-for-4 and he’s now hitting .118 with a .403 OPS.

In Mexico, Randy Romero went 2-for-5 with a run scored. He’s now hitting .304 with a .729 OPS.

Brayan Roman threw 1.1 shutout innings. I missed his debut in the league, so he’s now up to 3.2 shutout innings after Sunday night. He needs the winter work, because an injury this year limited him to just 11 games for Bradenton. He was previously known as Denny, which is his actual first name. He started going by his middle name last year.

John started working at Pirates Prospects in 2009, but his connection to the Pittsburgh Pirates started exactly 100 years earlier when Dots Miller debuted for the 1909 World Series champions. John was born in Kearny, NJ, two blocks from the house where Dots Miller grew up. From that hometown hero connection came a love of Pirates history, as well as the sport of baseball. When he didn't make it as a lefty pitcher with an 80+ MPH fastball and a slider that needed work, John turned to covering the game, eventually focusing in on the prospects side, where his interest was pushed by the big league team being below .500 for so long. John has covered the minors in some form since the 2002 season, and leads the draft and international coverage on Pirates Prospects. He writes daily on Pittsburgh Baseball History, when he's not covering the entire system daily throughout the entire year on Pirates Prospects.
