A total of 10 movements occurred in the LVBP transaction line, starting Friday afternoon and ending this Saturday morning.
It all started with the entry into the big league Cardinals roster. Everson Pereira y Ali Sanchez.
Both big leaguers had a significant impact on Lara’s victory over Magallanes. Pereira made his debut in the LVBP and had two hits, including a home run. And Sánchez was once again the starting catcher, the position he defended in the last postseason and until the Caribbean Series.
The rookie Ronald Hernandez (Class A Mets, 5-0 this season) was euthanized along with César Izturis Jr. (.125 average in 4 games).
Shortly after the day ended, this Saturday morning, the Eagles moved 6 pieces to modify their pitching staff. After receiving serious punishment in the two games held in Puerto La Cruz, Zulia retired 3 pitchers in exchange for another 3.
The veteran Francisco Carrillo (15.00 ERA in 4 reliefs) is the best-known name among those leaving the Raptors’ weekly roster in these LVBP transactions.
As part of these operations, the Zulians registered the pitcher just before Ignacio Briceno. He is one of the pieces taken in the 2024 New Signing Draft. He comes from a positive season in advanced Class A (4-5, 3 saves, 3.06 in 32 appearances).
In another movement chained in these LVBP transactions, the rookie Eybersson Polanco (5.23 in Class A medium) left the restrictive list, after completing the 7 days out required by the rule. He immediately entered the weekly roster.
