Dirty Birds add six players for 2023CHARLESTON, WV (March 14, 2023) – The Charleston Dirty Birds announce six additions to the 2023 roster including C Alfredo Gonzalez returning to Charleston for a second season. Gonzalez is entering his 14th season of professional baseball and slashed .281/.353/.509 in 2021 with a career-high of 17 home runs. “Alfredo showed tremendous power at the plate, speed on the bases, and versatile defense behind the plate and the corner infield,” said Dirty Birds’ Manager Billy Horn. “Having Alfredo return to Charleston is a big piece to our offense and behind the plate.” Also returning to Charleston for a second season is RHP Ricardo Gomez. Gomez set the record in 2021 for most appearances in the Atlantic League with a 2-0 record and a 2.25 ERA. Joining the Dirty Birds’ 2023 roster are INF Montrell Marshall, RHP Luis Martinez, RHP Joan Martinez, and INF Luis Atiles. “Adding power arms to the back end of the bullpen gives us some depth that we are really excited to see,” said Horn. “Marshall brings us depth at the corner infield, and Atiles brings us youth and speed that can be utilized all over the diamond. These are great additions and we are excited to see the true power to all fields in 2023.” The Dirty Birds home opener is May 9 at GoMart Ballpark.
