I forever remain fascinated by the vagaries of dev only manual imports and have stumbled across two more I felt worth sharing.
Chris Gittins' MLB career to this point consists of just a 4-for-36 cuppa with the Yanks in 2021, since which time he has spent some time in Japan and even as a mature-age rookie for the Astros in their Florida Complex. Hard to say unequivocally, but his lack of 2025 stats suggests he is no longer in the game at the pro level.
In the GL timeline, he is much more living up to his "Hard Hittin'" nickname. Entering the league as a FA after the 2002 season and subsequently signed by Puebla, Chris has impressed to this point with 30 home runs in his rookie campaign and 19 so far in 2004. His .331 AVG for the season in progress puts the lie to those TTO ratings you see in the screenshot below and I'll be extra keen to see if he can maintain that or gets bitten by the regression bug at some point.
Either way, Puebla have done very well from adding him.
The second player I want to highlight is another I had never even heard of before now (clearly I don't follow the modern game too closely),
Elehuris Montero. He plied his trade for the Rockies between 2022 and 2024 IRL in the comfy hitting confines of Coors Field, with the sort of sub-replacement performance that gets you shipped elsewhere. In his case, the Hiroshima Carp in the league that shall not be mentioned.
In the GL, on the other hand, he continues to excel despite a recent change of scenery. Originally taken 192nd overall by Tijuana in the Inaugural Draft, Elehuris belted 70 homers in his three seasons at Estadio Chevron, while driving in 279 runs including 110 in 2002.
For whatever reason, the Toros let him walk at the end of 2004 and he signed a 3-year deal with Aguascalientes that is already paying dividends. At the time of posting, Ele is slashing .301/.373/.551 for the Rieleros with 17 homers and 61 driven in, good for almost 3 WAR.
Sadly his fine contribution hasn't helped his club much, with them rooted to the foot of the NOR Desierto with a Queretaro-esque 32-46 record.
All the same, nice to see these sort of footnote players getting some time in the spotlight.
