Gleyber Torres has had his ups and downs in recent campaigns, which has led him to find himself at the heart of trade rumors sending him elsewhere, even if he wants to stay in the Bronx. .
Presumably his performance will dictate what happens next in his case. And for now, we can say that the second baseman answers the call.
According to the main interested party, this is partly attributable to his presence at the World Baseball Classic last month with Venezuela, where all the games were of paramount importance.
These games are kind of like playoff games, because it’s not about hitting a lot of home runs, just getting to the trails. We faced some really, really good pitchers there. It helped me a bit to get into the process. I just try to be in control and be patient when I come to home plate.
If Torres can return to the standards that were expected upon his arrival in MLB, the New York Yankees will have a nice puzzle on hand, with the surplus of infield players looming in the future. horizon. A nice problem that the general manager Brian Cashman will solve in due time.
It remains to be seen whether the Venezuelan will be able to maintain the pace and solidify his position, since for the moment, Oswald Peraza seems to have experienced a setback in his progress, something normal for a young prospect.
