Potomac Nationals News Release


Woodbridge, VA - In conjunction with the Carolina League, the Potomac Nationals are excited to announce that two members of the 2019 P-Nats squad have earned Post-Season accolades. 1B Aldrem Corredor and 2B Cole Freeman were each named to the Post-Season Carolina League All-Star team at their respective starting positions.

The 23-year-old Corredor has spent all of 2019 with Potomac after the first baseman appeared in 59 games for the P-Nats in 2018. As of this announcement, Corredor is leads the Carolina League in RBIs (79), hits (130), and doubles (33). Corredor has either already set or is likely to set new individual season highs in runs, hits, doubles, home runs, and RBIs. The Venezuelan native holds the current 2019 P-Nats individual high in consecutive games with a hit (19), a streak that is currently active. Over that stretch, the first baseman has hit .353 with six doubles and has posted an on-base percentage of .423.

In his first year with Potomac, Freeman has been one of the mainstays defensively up the middle, be it at second base or in centerfield. The 24-year-old product out of LSU is in line to become the second Potomac player in as many years to take home the Carolina League's batting champion. As of the Post-Season All-Star announcement, Freeman has hit .297 in 113 games with Potomac, nearly 10 points ahead of anyone else in the league likely to qualify for the final leaders. Freeman currently ranks T-1st in the Carolina League in runs scored (71), third in stolen bases (29), second in on-base percentage (.383), and second in hits (124).

In addition to the two P-Nats who earned Post-season recognition, Carolina Mudcats' C Mario Feliciano won the Carolina League Most Valuable Player award. Feliciano currently leads the Carolina League in home runs (19) and slugging percentage (.474) and is second in RBIs (78). Carolina's RHP Noah Zavolas earned the league's Pitcher of the Year award. In 22 Carolina League starts thus far in 2019, Zavolas has gone 6-5 with a 2.98 ERA. The right-handed starter has struck out 102 batters and walked just 23 in 133.0 innings. Down East Wood Ducks manager Corey Ragsdale was named the Carolina League Manager of the Year. The Wood Ducks won the First Half Southern Division Championship and have the best overall record in the 10-team Carolina League.
