Notes on Phillies and former Phillies participating in winter leagues.


Dominican Winter League :


12/11/24 action : center fielder Johan Rojas went 1 for 4 (single) with two stolen bases for Gigantes del Cibao in a 3-2 loss to Toros del Este. Former Phillies minor league RHP Joel Cesar pitched a scoreless inning in the game for the Gigantes - in nine appearances this season he’s posted a 0.00 ERA (9.1 IP) with 12 K’s and 3 walks - 4 hits allowed - a 0.75 WHIP.  Former Phillies minor league infielder Jonathan Villar went 2 for 5 (singles) for Aguilas Cibaeñas in a 4-3 win over Tigres del Licey.


Colombia Winter League :


12/11/24 action : Nolan Beltran went 1 for 3 (single) with a walk playing left field for Tigres de Cartagena in a 5-2 loss to Vaqueros de Monteria. Former Phillies minor league outfielder Jhailyn Ortiz went 2 for 4 (single & double) with two RBIs and a run scored for the Toros de Sincelejo in a 8-5 loss to Caimanes de Barranquilla.


Venezuela Winter League :


12/11/24 action : former Phillies infielder Cesar Hernandez went 1 for 4 (HR) with a walk, RBI and run scored for Tiburones de La Guaira in a 12-4 loss to Leones del Caracas.  Right fielder Leandro Pineda was 1 for 3 (single) for Navegantes del Magallanes in a 8-3 loss to Aguilas del Zulia.


Mexican Pacific Winter League :


12/11/24 action :  former Phillies minor league LHP JP Woodward racked up another scoreless inning (1 H, 3 K’s) for Venados de Mazatlán in a 4-3 win over Cañeros de Los Mochis. Woodward lowers his season ERA to 2.73 in 28 games (26.1 IP) and has not allowed a run in his last 13 appearances (13 IP) posting 18 K’s against just one walk and allowing six hits during that span. He’s a free agent who should be signed by someone - just sayin 🤔.
