Alex Bustamante brings contact skills, versatility, and grit to UTA’s infield
In the 2026 season, Alex Bustamante appeared in 10 games for UT Arlington and went 2-for-10 with two runs, one RBI, three walks, one hit-by-pitch, and one stolen base, showing a compact, disciplined profile rather than big power. His value is the grinder package: a .321 hitter over two seasons at Odessa College with 20 doubles and 48 RBI before arriving at UTA, plus enough defensive flexibility to handle the infield. If you want a steady, low-drama bat who can survive in traffic and keep innings alive, he’s worth a look.
