Whither Urrutia?

Yeah, watching in milb.tv He looks like the splendid splinter. Wiry and kind of coils up before he swings. He hit the ball hard to 2B in the first. Missed his strikeout his 2nd time. He kept alive by fouling about 3-4 pitches off with two strikes before lining a solid opposite field single into LF. Looks good so far. Definitely aggressive so far. Swing looks good. The question will be what kind of power he's got. Not a bad debut, picking up a big hit like that with 2 outs.

My vague memory was there was talk of him stopping switch hitting. Is he only batting from the left side? Only thing I could find was ~D's ST vid in the cage, also LH. Not listed on the Bay Sox roster yet after midnight.

Urrutia facing a lefty starter for Akron today, House. Guy had 23 starts in AA last year with decent results: 124IP, 114H, 90/44 K/BB. MiLB gameday says line drive single to center in 1st. Have to like the positive start in US pro ball.
