En el episodio de hoy de Baseball News, abordamos un tema candente que podría cambiar el rumbo de los Yankees: 1. Munetaka Murakami en la mira de los Yankees: El poderoso slugger japonés, Munetaka Murakami, podría ser el próximo gran fichaje de los Yankees. Con 56 jonrones en 2022 y una Triple Corona en la NPB, Murakami ha sido comparado con leyendas como Hideki Matsui. Aunque su defensa en tercera base es cuestionable, su versatilidad le permite jugar en primera base y en el jardín izquierdo. Los Yankees, con un vacío evidente en la tercera base y sin una solución inmediata en su sistema de ligas menores, podrían ser el destino ideal para Murakami una vez que sea posteado por los Tokyo Yakult Swallows al finalizar la temporada 2025 . 2. Otros titulares destacados: Francisco Lindor conecta un elevado de sacrificio para que los Mets dejen en el terreno a los Medias Blancas. Anthony Volpe impulsa la victoria de los Yankees sobre los Angels con un doblete clave. Shohei Ohtani inicia el juego con su jonrón número 19 de la temporada, liderando a los Dodgers sobre los Guardians. Jackson Chourio y Andrew Monasterio impulsan a los Cerveceros en su triunfo ante los Medias Rojas. Manny Machado conecta un jonrón clave en la octava entrada y los Padres dejan tendidos a los Marlins en once entradas. Keider Montero brilla desde la lomita en la victoria de los Tigres sobre los Gigantes. Kevin Gausman lanza ocho sólidas entradas y Daulton Varsho conecta un jonrón en el triunfo de los Azulejos sobre los Rangers. #MunetakaMurakami #Yankees #MLB #BaseballNews #ShoheiOhtani #FranciscoLindor #AnthonyVolpe #MannyMachadoConviértete en un seguidor de este podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/con-las-bases-llenas-podcast-de-beisbol--2742086/support.

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker recap Kevin Gausman's 8-inning outing en route to a Blue Jays series-opening win against the Texas Rangers. They look at the scouting report on Rangers starter Nathan Eovaldi before bringing in Sportsnet's Shi Davidi (17:21) to discuss Anthony Santander's place in the batting order, if Gausman will need to continue experimenting with his pitches, Bowden Francis' fastball, and why Brendon Little is the second-most important arm out of the bullpen. Then, former GM & MLB Network's Dan O'Dowd stops by (29:54) to share a front-office perspective on managing the lack of scoring opportunities, giving one player a contract while leaving another pending free agent without one, and Shohei Ohtani's desire to pitch again.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
