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.
