The management of Caribes de AnzoƔtegui was able to find in Esteban Haro a short and medium term solution for his battered bullpen throughout the postseason, since the native of Los Mochis barely arrived in the country and has already begun to contribute to the eastern pitching staff.

In 4.1 innings of work, he has only allowed two hits, has given a walk and has struck out five batters, registering a WHIP of 0.64, also having two saves; one against the Cardinals on Tuesday and the most recent against Magallanes on Thursday. What a time to have a tremendous addition to the bullpen, because Caribes was, after Thursday’s day, one step away from sealing their ticket to the final.
Haro has improved the bullpen
Before this Friday, the Caribes bullpen was third in ERA (5.52); only above Leones (5.72) and Tigres (6.65), however, they are first in holds (15), saves (6), second in wins (4) and leaders in winning percentage (.800); which allows us to see that despite the high effectiveness, the Caribes has been a bullpen that has largely done the job.
On the other hand, this week has been the best for the relievers of Caribes, and in good part, thanks to the performances of Haro; who showed against Magallanes on Thursday that he had an excellent command of his shipments, a presence and command of the stage to seal the ninth win for Caribes in the Round Robin.
Similarly, the good actions of the Mochiteco in Venezuela is not a coincidence; Well, he comes from leaving a 0.31 ERA in 31 appearances with Mayos de Navojoa in the Mexican Pacific League, and for life in the Mexican winter circuit he shows an ERA of 3.32, with 249 strikeouts in 347.1 innings and 342 appearances.
