It’s really been a wild ride of a season for Pirates shortstop prospect Liover Peguero. He started the season by establishing himself as one of the better hitters in the Eastern League, despite also being one of the youngest.
Now down the stretch he’s really struggled, not nearly being as productive as he was when the season began.
So what changed?
Not counting Tuesday’s night game, Peguero is at a near even split when it comes to plate appearances before and after he spent that weekend in Pittsburgh as an emergency call-up, making his major league debut during that time.
