The athletes selected from the ranks of the Quebec squad are pitchers Miguel Cienfuegos, Codie Paiva and Samuel Adames as well as position players David Glaude and Jeffry Parra. For his part, Patrick Scalabrini could well deserve the honor of being named manager of the formation of the Eastern section if the Capitals were in first place as of Wednesday. On that day, the circuit will send the invitation to the head coach of each of the teams at the top of the two divisions. Scalabrini would therefore subsequently have the possibility of adding certain players of his choice to his formation.
Cienfuegos leads the league with an ERA of 2.21. The Laval native won six of his seven decisions, striking out 56 batters in 68 innings of work. Paiva, for his part, is among the leaders with 70 strikeouts in 62 innings, and his average is 3.34. As for Adames, he had 11 saves, which puts him second in the league in this regard.
Offensively, Glaude hit .295 and had 19 stolen bases. Parra boasts a .349 average, all accompanied by 13 doubles and 15 home runs and 39 RBIs. On defense, he retired 51% of runners who attempted a steal at his expense.
