Luis Leandro Ortiz (born January 27, 1999) is a Dominican professional baseball pitcher for the Pittsburgh Pirates of Major League Baseball (MLB).
Career
Ortiz was signed by the Pirates out of the Dominican Republic in 2018 for $25,000. By late 2021, his fastball had reached as high as 99 miles per hour (159 km/h).
While pitching for the Altoona Curve in 2022, Ortiz threw two immaculate innings in a span of just 25 days, four fewer than the shortest known span between such innings by a Major League pitcher.
Ortiz was promoted to the majors for the first time on September 11, 2022. Pirates general manager Ben Cherington told the press that the club intended to use the remainder of the season to assess the quality of starting pitching in their organization.
