Publicado por: Norland Rosendo Solo dos jugadores no japoneses fueron elegidos por los fanáticos de los Halcones de SoftBank en el equipo soñado de la pasada década y uno de ellos es el cubano Alfredo Despaigne, considerado como el mejor bateador designado. Los resultados de la singular encuesta fueron publicados recientemente por el portal nipón Baseball King y la mayoría de los atletas seleccionados aún militan en el club que ha ganado las tres últimas series de Japón de la NPB. Despaigne fichó por los Halcones desde que comenzó esa racha de campeonatos y en dicho lapso ha sido dos veces integrante del equipo ideal de la Liga del Pacífico (2017 y 2019). En su debut con la franquicia fue líder en jonrones (35) y empujadas (103) de su circuito. El toletero nacido en Santiago de Cuba, pero que ha jugado siempre con los Alazanes de Granma en series nacionales, acumula cien jonrones, 189 carreras anotadas y 265 empujadas con los Halcones de SoftBank, elenco que en la pasada década ganó seis veces el título.

  • Mutaciones Niponas
    Image not found or type unknown www.juventudrebelde.cu Image not found or type unknown Yu Darvish será una sensible ausencia para Japón. Autor: Internet Publicado: 21/09/2017 | 05:26 pm Mutaciones niponas Yu Darvish, uno de los lanzadores nipones más encumbrados del momento, decidió no participar en el venidero Clásico Mundial de béisbol Publicado: Miércoles 07 noviembre 2012 | 11:11:55 pm. Publicado por: Raiko Martín Apenas transcurrió un puñado de horas entre la divulgación del grupo escogido por el manager japonés Koji Yamamoto para enfrentar a la selección cubana, y el anuncio de que Yu Darvish, uno de los lanzadores nipones más encumbrados del momento, decidió no participar en el venidero Clásico Mundial de béisbol. El destacado serpentinero dio la noticia a través de un comunicado colgado en la página web del equipo Rangers de Texas, con el que participa en las Grandes Ligas estadounidenses. «Debido a la carga de trabajo que he tenido en las últimas temporadas y los cambios que he pasado en mi traslado a Estados Unidos, mi equipo y yo decidimos que lo más importante es descansar y prepararme para la próxima temporada», explicó el jugador, quien tuvo un papel protagónico en el triunfo japonés en el pasado Clásico. Darvish era uno de los jugadores de la Gran Carpa que parecía estar en los planes de Yamamoto, junto a su compañero de equipo Koji Uehara, Hisashi Iwakuma (Marineros de Seattle), así como Hiroki Koruda e Ichiro Suzuki (Yankees de Nueva York), entre otros. No sé si el debutante manager conocía de antemano la decisión, ni si ella influyó en la convocatoria del grupo que enfrentará dos veces a la escuadra cubana, en la que el pitcheo es el área con jugadores de menos renombre.
