25-year-old Edgar Santana made his Major League debut for the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2017. This came after Pirate fans had spent the past few years hearing all about the wipeout slider he had been using to put up great results in the minor leagues.
After recording the first 18 innings of his Major League career in 2017, Edgar Santana will be counted upon by the Pirates to be a big part of their bullpen moving forward. Could this start as soon as Opening Day 2018? Well, after the September Santana had it is certainly possible.
The overall numbers this season for Edgar Santana were not overly pretty.
