Fruto baffling hitters in winter ball
Young right-hander impressing Nats in Venezuelan league
Emiliano Fruto has been one of the best relief pitchers in the Venezuelan Winter League this season.
Pitching for the Cardenales de Lara, the right-hander is 2-1 with five saves and a 2.61 ERA over 19 appearances. He has struck out 26 over 20 2/3 innings and has not yielded a hit over his last six outings.

The Columbia native is currently on the Nationals' 40-man roster, but it's unknown whether he will make the team out of Spring Training. At just 22, Fruto could benefit from spending some additional time in the Minor Leagues.
