Talk:José Espada

From BR Bullpen

We have him listed on Puerto Rico's roster for the 2023 World Baseball Classic but some places don't. Looks like maybe he was part of their designated pitcher pool? - Mischa (talk) 10:09, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

I found this in a report on a warm-up game for Puerto Rico: "Rodríguez posted a 1.2-inning outing of six hits, four runs, two walks and one strikeout before being replaced by José Espada, a pitcher for the Carolina Giants who is in Puerto Rico’s reserve arms pool for the Classic."[1] So yes, he was a reserve, but he is listed on the team's roster on most sites. I think this has been enough to give a player the national team tag in the past, but I defer to your expertise. Philippe (talk) 13:31, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
Usually, we've only given it to people on the active roster. Not sure if we reached a conclusion about the designated pitcher pool. - Mischa (talk) 15:23, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
