5/20/2012-The Trinidad Triggers have acquired Cuban Reliever Alexei Gil Perez. Perez is the first Cuban to land in the Pecos League. The Triggers acquired Perez from Richard W Carter of Arlington Texas. Perez was originally set to pitch in Laredo in the American Association. Laredo's roster was suddenly full so Perez has begun his season with the Triggers. He has made two appearances and has an ERA of 1.29 which is unheard of in the Pecos League. He completely shut the door on White Sands for 7 innings. "He will be quickly promoted to a higher league. I will use him while I have him. He saved us tonight." says field manager Justin Lowery.
