/*-->*/
ATLANTA -- El viernes por la noche, por segunda vez esta temporada, el lineup titular de los Piratas incluyó a cinco novatos, y el equipo podría sumar otro rostro nuevo en las próximas semanas.
Oneil Cruz, el prospecto número 22 de Grandes Ligas según MLB Pipeline, es el jugador que los fans de Pittsburgh esperan cause sensación entre los novatos de las Mayores. Pero el equipo no quiere apresurar el desarrollo del dominicano hasta que esté completamente listo.
John Baker, director de entrenamiento y desarrollo de jugadores de los Piratas, habló sobre lo mucho que se clama por del ascenso de Cruz, pero hizo énfasis en la paciencia y en esperar el momento indicado.
“Queremos que Oneil Cruz esté en posición de ser el jugador de Grandes Ligas de más impacto que pueda llegar a ser”, dijo Baker, “y a veces, toma tiempo llegar a ese punto. Y creo que es difícil para toda la organización porque adoramos a Oneil. Nos fascina lo que puede hacer, pero queremos … ponerlo en la mejor posición para que sea increíblemente exitoso”.
El 29 de septiembre del 2021, el quisqueyano Roansy Contreras hizo su debut de Grandes Ligas. Cruz llegó al equipo grande tres días después. Este año, Contreras fue convocado temprano, debutando el 9 de abril, mientras Cruz permaneció en Triple-A Indianápolis.
La novena de Pittsburgh está bien consciente de la habilidad atlética que tiene el torpedero de 23 años, pero su desarrollo ahora quizás sea cuestión de intangibles más que de producción en el terreno. El oriundo de Nizao lleva 13 partidos consecutivos embasándose, con un hit en 12 de esos juegos, incluyendo seis jonrones y cinco compromisos de más de un imparable.
“Nunca hemos visto a un torpedero que mida 6 pies y 7 pulgadas jugar en Grandes Ligas, así que no hay guía para desarrollar a alguien así”, señaló Baker.
“El mensaje ha sido bien consistente. Hace falta más de lo mismo de parte de Oneil. Mejoras graduales en la exactitud de los tiros y seguridad con la bola; cuando eso llegue al nivel indicado, entonces creo que Oneil es un jugador de Grandes Ligas capaz de aportar y con la oportunidad de convertirse en una estrella”.
