Personal

Jose has good power and the ability to get on base consistently.  He has experience at various levels, which helps him effectively transition to different environments.

Career Highlights

  • Experience at junior-college, NAIA and collegiate summer league levels

  • Experience in independent professional leagues in the U.S.

  • Batted .289 with .995 OPS in Pecos (independent pro) League in 2019

  • Honorable-mention all-conference player in junior college

  • Batted .385 with .923 OPS in 2015 junior-college season

Overseas goals

Jose looks to extend his baseball career by playing overseas, and he would like to leverage that as a stepping stone into a professional league in the U.S.  In addition, he enjoys new cultures and new people, and playing overseas would give him the opportunity to influence the growth of the game globally.  A bonus would be if he could gain some coaching experience.
