Luis Medina sigue impresionando en Oakland, pese a los jonrones
Luis Medina sigue impresionando en Oakland, pese a los jonrones
SEATTLE -- Despu¨¦s de las primeras cuatro aperturas de su joven carrera en las Grandes Ligas, el dominicano Luis Medina contin¨²a brind¨¢ndoles a los Atl¨¦ticos una prometedora visi¨®n del lanzador en el que podr¨ªa convertirse.
Aunque los Atl¨¦ticos se quedaron cortos en la derrota por 3-2 contra los Marineros la noche del martes en el T-Mobile Park, Medina volvi¨® a destacarse con otra s¨®lida labor. El prospecto Nro. 17 de Oakland, seg¨²n MLB Pipeline, lanz¨® cinco entradas y un tercio, permitiendo tres carreras con cinco hits, dos bases por bolas y cuatro ponches.
¡°Este muchacho est¨¢ luchando. Est¨¢ batallando¡±, dijo el manager de los Atl¨¦ticos, Mark Kotsay, sobre Medina. ¡°Est¨¢ mejorando. ?sa es la se?al que estamos buscando. ?sta fue otra apertura de calidad, si lo piensas. Pero los batazos largos le est¨¢n pasando factura, y normalmente es hacia el final¡±.
Medina domin¨® al principio, limitando la ofensiva de Seattle a un hit en cuatro innings en blanco. Como puede ser el caso con la mayor¨ªa de los lanzadores j¨®venes, el derecho de 24 a?os se coloc¨® en problemas una vez que enfrent¨® la alineaci¨®n de los Marineros por tercera vez.
Despu¨¦s de retirar r¨¢pidamente a los primeros dos bateadores del quinto episodio, un doble del noveno bate Tom Murphy fue seguido por jonrones consecutivos de J.P. Crawford y Ty France. Si bien Medina sali¨® de la entrada, un elevado bien conectado a lo profundo del jard¨ªn central por parte del venezolano Eugenio Su¨¢rez en la sexta fue una se?al para Kotsay de que era hora de sacar al novato tras 88 lanzamientos.
¡°Sobre cada lanzador hay datos que sustentan que la tercera vez (ante un lineup) es la parte m¨¢s dif¨ªcil de superar¡±, coment¨® Kotsay. ¡°Luis termin¨® encontr¨¢ndose con eso. Eso es parte del crecimiento. Tienes que vivirlo, pasar por esos momentos claves y poder superarlos¡±.
Durante su carrera en las ligas menores, la poderosa recta de Medina fue sin duda su lanzamiento m¨¢s destacado. Ante los Marineros el martes, toc¨® las 99 millas por hora y promedi¨® 96.7 mph con su bola r¨¢pida.
Sin embargo, un pitcheo igualmente impresionante ha sido su slider. Medina lo tir¨® 27 veces, generando 18 swings y nueve swings en blanco con ella. Sus cuatro ponches, todos tir¨¢ndole, fueron rematados con el slider.
¡°Tiene los pitcheos¡±, asegur¨® el receptor de los Atl¨¦ticos, el venezolano Carlos P¨¦rez. ¡°La velocidad est¨¢ ah¨ª. Creo que poco a poco va ganando confianza y aprendiendo a lanzar en determinadas situaciones. Le dije que me gust¨® de verdad c¨®mo lanz¨®, dejando a un lado los jonrones¡±.
Los mayores elogios que un lanzador puede recibir a menudo provienen del otro dugout, y Medina se ha ganado algunos de ellos en este inicio de su carrera en las Mayores. El martes por la noche, fue el dirigente de los Marineros, Scott Servais, quien lo elogi¨®.
¡°Su abridor demostr¨® un buen material¡±, dijo Servais, refiri¨¦ndose a Medina. ¡°Antes del partido, ya sab¨ªamos que es un pitcher joven con una recta bien buena. Tiene lanzamientos secundarios de calidad. Sab¨ªamos que no iba a ser una noche de muchas carreras¡±.
El par de cuadrangulares permitidos elev¨® el total que ha recibido Medina en la Gran Carpa a siete en 22.1 entradas esta temporada. Ha cedido al menos dos en tres de sus primeras cuatro salidas con los Atl¨¦ticos, por lo que los bambinazos son claramente un problema que deber¨¢ resolver.
En general, la conclusi¨®n del primer mes de Medina como jugador de Grandes Ligas es que r¨¢pidamente se est¨¢ desprendiendo de la noci¨®n de que podr¨ªa ser un brazo m¨¢s adecuado para el bullpen.
¡°Me siento muy positivo en cada juego que lanzo¡±, coment¨® Medina. ¡°Cada apertura, salgo con m¨¢s hambre y ganas de poner al equipo en una buena posici¨®n para ganar. Voy a salir en cada apertura con m¨¢s hambre¡±.
