Roansy Contreras Pitches Three Scoreless Innings In MLB Debut
3 years agoPittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Roansy Contreras made his MLB debut against the Chicago Cubs on Wednesday. He got the start for the game and went on to pitch three scoreless innings, allowing three hits and one walk while striking out four. The 21-year-old is the team's sixth ranked prospect on MLB Pipeline. He was fantastic in the minors this year. Over 58 innings split between Double-A and Triple-A, he pitched to a 2.64 ERA and a 0.93 WHIP while averaging 12.7 K/9. We won't see him again this season, but the late season call-up gives hope that he could have a chance for a rotation spot next year.
