Pichi Balet Signs
Lincoln, Neb. – Infielder Frederico “Pichi” Balet (LS-4) will be back in a Lincoln Saltdogs’ uniform this season after signing a contract, the team announced.
“Pichi is the type of player that comes to play everyday,” said Saltdogs manager Tim Johnson. “He is fundamentally solid, both defensively and offensively, and is a fierce competitor. We expect big things from him this season.”
Balet appeared in 88 games last season for Lincoln, batting .331.avg with 12 HRs and 79 RBI.
A native of West Palm Beach, FL, Balet, 28, will begin his sixth season of professional baseball and his second with the Saltdogs.
