Sepulveda opened the season at Bristol.  He got into two games and was sent down to the GCL after allowing five unearned runs in the second one.  (In a fairly typical display for Bristol, Sepulveda’s teammates committed three errors in a span of four plays, so the Pirates may have sent him down simply because some of their draftees arrived.)  In the GCL, Sepulveda’s performance was much better than his ERA.

The Pirates could try Sepulveda at Bristol in 2018.
