ATF: December 27

Roberto Perez

Around the Farm (ATF) takes a quick look at some of the daily performances by Indians prospects. This is a special winter ball version of ATF that recaps all the offseason action by Indians players in the Caribbean Leagues.  The positions listed below are where the player was playing in the game.

• Giovanny Urshela (3B, Cartagena Tigres): 0-for-1. Urshela sat for the first time in a long time and was a late game replacement.

• Roberto Perez (C, Indios de Mayaguez): 0-for-0, BB.  The playing time has been very limited for Perez out in Puerto Rico as he has played in just 5 games even though he has been with the team for about 5 weeks. He is only 2-for-11 in those 5 games, but surprise, surprise….he has 5 walks.

• Jose Lopez (3B, Cardenales de Lara): 2-for-4. Lopez racked up his 3^rd multi-hit game in his last 4 games, and is now hitting .385 with 2 HR, 10 RBI and 1.006 OPS in his last 10 games. In 41 games this offseason he is hitting .316 with a .848 OPS.
