This past offseason Jose Osuna was eligible for the Rule Five Draft. Due to this, the Pirates added him to the 40-man roster to protect him from the Rule Five Draft. And this is a move that could prove to be a very smart one.
Throughout his Minor League career the first baseman/outfielder has always hit. His ability to hit flashed in Spring Training last year and is flashing again this spring. So, what does the future hold for the 24-year old Venezuelan?
In 2,944 Minor League plate appearances Jose Osuna owns a .278/.330/.439/.770 slash line.
