Currently representing the Pittsburgh Pirates on the Surprise Saguaros roster are four pitchers, a catcher, and one infielder and outfielder each. The pitchers are Tanner Anderson, Montana DuRapua, Edgar Santana, and Alex McRae. Anderson is the only pitcher who is being used as a starting pitcher. The other three are pitching strictly as relief pitchers.
For Santana and DuRapau this is normal, as they were used as relievers throughout the season. However, for Alex McRae it is not typical. He made 27 starts this year between Bradenton and Altoona. Now this does not suggest that he is transitioning into a reliever.
