Cuban Baseball Series 2015-2016

50 percent of players chosen to join the qualified teams for the second phase of the Cuban Baseball Series starting on December 15th are pitchers.

The coaches' decision to pick more pitchers points to the general pitching weakness of teams in the first phase of the championship.

From the total amount of 40 ball players, five for each team, half of them are pitchers, revealing the need to work more on this area, although teams' production in the first round was 3,87 clean runs in nine innings of a game.

The selection was better than previous years and coaches are more focused to win a place in the playoffs final four in April 2016.
