Cuban Yunior Tur to bolster Gigantes del Cibao pitching ⚾
Cuban pitcher Yunior Tur is joining the Gigantes del Cibao to strengthen the pitching staff for the upcoming winter campaign.
Our fans from San Francisco de Macorís who follow winter baseball have a new figure to support on the mound at the Julián Javier stadium. Cuban pitcher Yunior Tur will join the Gigantes del Cibao for the upcoming LIDOM season, as reported on the social network X by sports journalist Yusseff.
The 27-year-old right-hander has experience in Major League Baseball with the Athletics, a team with which he pitched in eight games and managed to strike out 14 batters. Among his main weapons stands out a varied repertoire led by the splitter, a pitch with which he managed to induce swinging strikes on more than 41% of his rivals' attempts.
This addition joins a San Francisco camp that kicked off strongly in October, adding heavyweight players like Marcell Ozuna and several foreign reinforcements to present a top-tier roster.
