  • El Sable Viene Bajito
    Image not found or type unknown www.juventudrebelde.cu Image not found or type unknown De Ichiro Suzuki se echará de menos su experiencia competitiva. Autor: Internet Publicado: 21/09/2017 | 05:28 pm El sable viene bajito Pese a las anunciadas ausencias de sus estrellas «internacionales», el elenco nipón muestra una sólida escuadra de probada calidad Publicado: Domingo 09 diciembre 2012 | 02:18:14 am. Publicado por: Raiko Martín Al equipo de Japón le teme todo el mundo y ese miedo no es gratuito. Viene precedido por los inobjetables títulos conquistados en las únicas dos ediciones del Clásico Mundial de béisbol, y en la capacidad probada de armar un sólida escuadra, aunque no estén disponibles aquellos actualmente enrolados en las Grandes Ligas estadounidenses. Para algunos, las anunciadas ausencias de sus estrellas «internacionales» restan potencia al elenco nipón. Sin embargo, no son pocos los analistas que las asumen como una ventaja, teniendo en cuenta que estas figuras tienden a no seguir el ritmo de trabajo de sus compañeros. La mayoría de los expertos se inclinan a pensar que será el diestro Yu Darvish el que más se extrañe dentro de la nómina, aun cuando tampoco hayan aceptado la invitación notables lanzadores como Hiroki Kuroda y Hisashi Iwakuma. Si hay un área en la que sobre talento dentro, esa es la de los lanzadores. De el icónico Ichiro Suzuki se echará de menos la experiencia y su halo mediático, pero los entendidos señalan al menos cinco jardineros con la capacidad de batear, correr o defender con tanta o mayor calidad que él.
