Bethancourt has yet to allow a hit through three spring training innings as a pitcher.
Bethancourt -- primarily a catcher -- has been experimenting with pitching this spring after seeing action on the mound in two games last season. He threw another scoreless inning in Friday's win over the Angels, notching his first strikeout in the process. Bethancourt features a mid-to-high 90s fastball, but is far from a finished product. If he continues to have success in Cactus League action, then he should punch his ticket for the 25-man roster due to his unique blend of being able to fill three backup spots on the depth chart (catcher, outfielder and pitcher).
