Parma has concluded an agreement for next season with the pitcher Claudio Scottiborn in Rome on 7 August 1998 and coming from Bologna.
Scotti is a right-handed pitcher and has experience in the United States at the rookie league and single-A level with the Pittsburgh Pirates (2016-2017) and New York Mets (2022-2023) organizations. For him an overall record of two wins and two losses with an overall average of 5.01.
His Italian career began in the ranks of Cali Roma and developed with the teams of Città di Nettuno (2018) and Fortitudo Bologna (2019-2023). With the Bologna team he won three Italian titles (2019-2020-2023) and a European Champions Cup (2019).
The experiences gained with the Italian youth national teams are also important. For him a European title (2018) and a participation in the world championships with the Under 18s and the experience of the Under 23 European championships played in Verona in 2021.
The debut in the senior national team took place in 2018 with the call-up for Haarlem Week and for the Super Six. Also to his credit is participation in the World Baseball Classic.
“I believe that Parma is the best choice I could have made after ending the relationship with Bologna – Claudio Scotti’s first words -. They told me about the Parma Clima project and I was easily convinced, we will be a good team made up of many good-calibre Italian players.”
Scotti will reach Parma in these days and will immediately make himself available to the technical staff to continue preparation.
“The shoulder injury from last season now belongs to the past – explains the international -. I am fully recovered and have already started training. In Parma I know practically everyone from having shared the experiences of the Academy and the national teams. We have two intense months of work ahead of us to be ready for the start of the season.”
