Pedro Moreno is EKU’s steady, gap-to-gap spark at shortstop
In the 2026 season, Moreno has been a high-value two-way presence for Eastern Kentucky: he’s hitting .293 with a .410 on-base percentage, a .463 slugging percentage, 21 runs, eight doubles, three triples and seven steals while starting all 21 games at shortstop. His calling cards are contact, speed and run creation, but the real separator is the glove — he’s handled 75 chances without an error. For a team looking for a reliable, versatile infielder who impacts games without needing loud power, Moreno fits well.
