Landazuri was a second-team West Coast League all-star and was named the WCL Player of the Week for July 14-20. He earned the award by pitching eight shutout innings and getting the win in a 2-0 victory at Bellingham on July 18. He had a career-high 10 strikeouts, and did not issue a walk.

A graduate of Redlands High School in Redlands, Calif., Landazuri was 3-2 with a 3.52 ERA in 20 appearances as a freshman at UC Riverside, with 35 strikeouts in 53.2 innings.
