DL正式宣布簽下古巴叛逃的投手Yoslan Herrera
The Pittsburgh Pirates today announced they have signed free agent right-handed pitcher Yoslan Herrera to a three-year contract. No other terms of the deal were disclosed. The announcement was made by Pirates Senior Vice President and General Manager, Dave Littlefield.
Herrera, 25, posted a combined record of 18-7 with a 3.27 ERA during his career in Cuba. The 6-foot-2, 200-pound hurler was a member of the Youth Cuban National Team for two years (1999-2000) and also spent four seasons playing for the Cuban National Team (2001-2004).
"Yoslan enjoyed a successful career while pitching in Cuba," said Littlefield. "He's a right-handed starter with a good arm and someone who has been very intriguing to us based on his international success."
Herrera, who was signed by Pirate scouts Rene Gayo and Louie Eljaua, defected from Cuba in July of 2005 and spent the following seven months in Miami. He also traveled to the Dominican Republic where he spent most of 2006 training.
To make room for Herrera on the 40-man roster, the Pirates have designated infielder Craig Stansberry for assignment.
