Overview

Ordonez is a projectible pitcher who throws a four-seamer, slider and change.

2022-24

In his DSL debut, opponents batted only .145 against Ordonez, but his walk and K rates were terrible, at 10.6 BB/9 and 5.6 K/9. He returned to the level in 2023 and improved his K rate to 9.7, but he still walked to many and got hit harder, leading to a 1.85 WHIP. He did improve a lot after the first month. His opponents’ OPS went from .988 in June, to .593 and .508 in July and August. In 2024, though, Ordonez pitched only seven times, covering seven innings. He gave up eight hits and a dozen walks.
