>Greetings, friends of Full Sports. I'm back in the community with another touch of baseball. We Luis Arráez fans are wondering if he'll wear a fourth uniform this season. Luis Arráez's tenure with the San Diego Padres appears to have an end date. Pending a contract extension, everything points to the three-time batting champion being traded before July 31. At 27 years old, and already with experience in three organizations, the Venezuelan is ready to add a fourth uniform to his career.

>After a below-average start to the season, Arráez has regained his trademark offensive rhythm and established himself as one of the most effective bats in the major leagues. His ability to get on base, his low strikeout rate, and his skill and discipline at the plate make him an ideal option for teams with postseason aspirations.

>Based on this concept, I'm leaning toward two teams that could be interested in the Venezuelan. The first would be the Cleveland Guardians. With the departure of fellow Venezuelan Andrés Giménez, there's a gap at second base and in the lineup that Arráez could fill, providing stability and depth at the top of the lineup. He would also increase the contact options for an offense that relies on the occasional power of José Ramírez and Steven Kwan.

>My second team would be the San Francisco Giants, who have started a strong season and are emerging as a serious contender in the NL West. With the arrivals of Matt Chapman and Willy Adames, they've bolstered the roster, but I think they need a contact leadoff hitter like Arráez in a lineup that's more powerful than consistent. That said, will Luis Arráez return to the American League, where he won his first batting title with Minnesota, or will he win his fourth NL title? I'll read your comments. Until the next baseball call.

>Despite his impressive statistics and consistency at the plate, Luis Arráez is an underrated player in the league. His ability to make contact with the ball and his intelligence in the game are unique qualities that make him an exceptional hitter.

>Tener un primer bate en la alineación que haga contacto y no sé ponche es un lujo, pero hoy en día parece que no es suficiente. Hablo de Luis Arráez, un bateador subestimado a pesar de ser tres veces campeón, bate en dos ligas diferentes (Nacional y Americana) con tres equipos distintos, manteniendo un promedio de bateo por encima de .300 de average y 200 hits por temporada. ¿Que, a estas alturas, no tenga un contrato multianual?

>Sport has been, since time immemorial, much more than just a physical activity. It has become a fundamental pillar in society, shaping cultures, uniting people and enriching our lives in unimaginable ways. From childhood, sport accompanies us in our first steps, teaching us values ​​such as teamwork, discipline and respect for the rules. At school, children experience their first sporting emotions, forging friendships that last over time. As we grow up, sport continues to be an inseparable companion, giving us the opportunity to keep fit, reduce stress and improve our physical and mental health.

Pero el impacto del béisbol va más allá del ámbito deportivo. Este deporte ha sido fuente de inspiración para escritores, cineastas y músicos, que han plasmado su amor por el juego en obras que han trascendido generaciones. Además, el béisbol ha servido como un vehículo para la integración social, promoviendo la igualdad y la inclusión.,nos ha enseñado a ser mejores personas, a trabajar en equipo, a superar obstáculos y a disfrutar de los pequeños momentos. Es un legado que debemos preservar y transmitir a las futuras generaciones, para que el espíritu deportivo siga vivo por muchos años más.

>Baseball, in particular, has transcended the boundaries of a simple game. It has become a symbol of national identity in many countries, where stadiums are filled with fans who passionately cheer on their teams. Beyond statistics and results, baseball is a sport that evokes intense emotions, from the joy of a victory to the disappointment of a defeat. Each game is a unique story, full of unforgettable moments that remain engraved in the memory of those who experience it.

But the impact of baseball goes beyond the sporting sphere. This sport has been a source of inspiration for writers, filmmakers and musicians, who have captured their love for the game in works that have transcended generations. In addition, baseball has served as a vehicle for social integration, promoting equality and inclusion. It has taught us to be better people, to work as a team, to overcome obstacles and to enjoy the small moments. It is a legacy that we must preserve and pass on to future generations, so that the sporting spirit remains alive for many more years to come.

Desde 1994, cuando sucedió el caso, se han tomado medidas para desinfectar los billetes contaminados por residuos de droga, pero el procedimiento en cuestión no ha sido divulgado por razones obvias. Y así, todo parece indicar que muchísimos de esos dólares empolvados con partículas de cocaína continúan circulando sin que sus inocentes portadores imaginen siquiera lo que llevan adherido a algunos de esos verdes billetes que llevan en sus carteras y bolsillos.

>Greetings, music lovers, in this installment I want you to listen to a slow bachata "I'M LOOKING FOR YOU" is the story of the wife of a friend of the author who was kidnapped in India. Víctor Víctor is a Dominican composer who was the forerunner of classical bachata. When Victor victor heard this story he wrote the lyrics and engaveto them until one day the guarachera from America Celia Cruz asked him for a song for a bolero album he was producing and he remembered the song he had composed years ago, the owner of the sugar sings the song that by the way was not what Celia had used to us because it stood out more in the rhythms of salsa, guaracha and son, Celia's histrionics and vocal range It has allowed the Cuban woman to walk through all the Caribbean rhythms, she even shared with rap singers, reggaeton, winner of incalculable awards and tributes, she took her Cuban roots all over the world.

Buscando Un poco de mi vida

Mis estrellas no responden

Para alumbrarme hacia tu risa.

To the sky a long look

Looking for a bit of my life

My stars don't answer

To light me up to your laughter.

>Thus begins the lilting and loving song that speaks of pure and desperate love to find his love, he kept looking for her without finding her, what capacity for feeling can a composer have to make a story with a few melodic rhymes and make the imagination fly to such remote places. Excellent musical arrangement and the choirs entering each chord, it's music to my ears, the lyrics fill us with nostalgia for those loved ones who have left. Enjoy Celia's interpretation, Azúcar. Until next time.

>How about a full sports friend, welcome to the Mr. Baseball podcast due to coding problems on the 3 speak platform, I had not been able to upload the podcast, after several days trying, it was until today that I can present a new chapter of Mr. Baseball, in In my post I want to highlight other aspects of baseball beyond the results and analysis of the game, I must note that there are very good analysts in the community who know the game, such as @fermionico, @karlex77,@eduardo900613 (cuba), @epirela22.

>The idea is that many of the followers of the hive platform and especially those of full sports become familiar with everything that happens in baseball. The rules are norms that establish the way to execute a certain situation, a method to carry out operations, a measuring instrument and regulator of an action. Based on this premise we can see that in all sports there are people who enforce these rules, we are talking about the "Umpire" (Umpires) or in the graphic adaptation of English (Ampáyer) used by Latinos. These men dressed in black standing on the baseball field and whose only movement we see is raising their hands at each play or running from one side to the other are the ones called to bring order and validate each dubious play on the pitch.

Estos señores mal encarados y serios están preparados para aguantar varias horas bajo el sol, tomar muchas decisiones en pro o en contra del juego y para ello pasan por un entrenamiento en las academias de árbitros donde son sometidos a días intensos aprendizaje de las teorías, reglas del deporte y la práctica física en el terreno, una vez certificado comienza el recorrido por las ligas menores pasan algunos años adquiriendo experiencia, pero lo que no sabemos es que la mayor parte del tiempo se pasan en la carretera yendo de estadio en estadio en sus vehículos o en autobuses durmiendo en hoteles de baja categoría porque el sueldo no les alcanza.

>These bad-faced and serious gentlemen are prepared to endure several hours under the sun, make many decisions for or against the game and for this they undergo training in the referee academies where they are subjected to intense days learning the theories, rules of sport and physical practice on the field, once certified the tour of the minor leagues begins, they spend a few years gaining experience, but what we don't know is that most of the time they spend on the road going from stadium to stadium in their vehicles or in buses sleeping in low category hotels because the salary is not enough for them.

>Once they get called up to the big leagues, everything changes for the better financially. The umpires are human beings who make mistakes, but they have 5% to do it according to the arbitration parameters, the new rules have given more work to the referees and therefore more mistakes, they no longer only have to be aware of the strike, ball, the clock, the pitcher's movements, the balls, the discussions with the managers and players and the insults of the fans we might think that it is a matter of time before the robot referees end up being a reality.

>One of the decisions most remembered and objected to by the press and fans was the one carried out by the Venezuelan pitcher Armando Galarraga of the Detroit Tigers in 2010, when one out from the perfect game, an assist play by Galarraga himself to a Cleveland Indians batter Jason Donald's groundout at first base was called safe by Umpire Jim Joyce right or wrong? The fact that the next day in the replay it was shown that he had been out by one step, umpire Jim Joyce publicly apologized for his mistake and acknowledged that he had been wrong. In 2014, the repetition of dubious plays in the game was implemented. Until a next contact

>How about Melómano de Music, greets you @rafamar, Venezuelan by birth and salsa singer by passion, I was born in a neighborhood of a Caribbean country (Venezuela) where Salsa is in our blood (Rhythm, color and flavor) that I remember my life has I have been listening to these rhythms such as: La Bomba, la plena, bachata, merengue, Cuban son and of course salsa, I am a publicist, presenter and now I have ventured into podcasts, when I found out about this platform and especially this community an opening opened up for me. opportunity to bring back salsa that in my opinion has been forgotten by the musical revolution of new times and new rhythms, or perhaps singers and composers who do not carry the feeling of the people in their veins or is no longer commercial for the record label.

>To get into context, I want to make a brief review of where the name Salsa came from and when it was born? The name salsa means Dressing in Spanish and is metaphorically associated with the words flavor and joy, it was back in 1933 that a Cuban musician used the word in a Cuban son called Échale Salsita. There are other versions of why the word salsa, there was a radio that broadcast a tropical music program at lunchtime, where the commercial that sponsored the program mentioned a very famous ketchup at the time (Heinz).

La música salsa es una mezcla de sonidos africanos y caribeños que se originaron en Puerto Rico, República Dominicana, Cuba y en Estados unidos, aunque no lo crea. En los barrios latinos de Nueva York en la década de los 50 se reunían en los locales inmigrantes dominicanos, venezolanos, cubanos, la voz de barrio que expresaba sus desamores, la vida precaria y traer un pedacito de su caribe a la gran manzana. La calle esta durísima cantaba Joe Cuba, un son para bailar, evadirse, y unirse a sus compatriotas que están lejos de su tierra natal.

>Salsa music is a mix of African and Caribbean sounds that originated in Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, Cuba and the United States, believe it or not. In the Latino neighborhoods of New York in the 1950s, Dominican, Venezuelan, and Cuban immigrants met in the local neighborhood voices that expressed their heartbreak, precarious life, and brought a little piece of their Caribbean to the Big Apple. The street is very hard sang Joe Cuba, a son to dance, escape, and join his compatriots who are far from their homeland.

Esta es la verdadera historia de la música popular, el sonido de la calle y del pueblo. Mi primer contacto físico con la salsa fue por allá en 1974 en una presentación en vivo de la Fania all star que reunía a los mejores exponentes de la salsa de aquellos tiempos, músicos de la talla de Rubén Blades, Johny Pacheco, Larry Harlow, Héctor Lavoe por nombrar unos pocos, recuerdo también que fueron muchas horas de sonido bestial en ese entonces una canción duraba más de 10 minutos entre presentación de la orquesta, las improvisaciones y soneos de los cantantes que estaban a la orden de la noche, de esas leyendas muchos han muerto otros siguen matando sus tigres en presentaciones privadas y viviendo de la nostalgia y los recuerdos, por ellos los invito a que me sigan a echarle salsa a la comunidad. Mi respeto a todos los músicos y cantantes que hacen vida en esta plataforma.

>This is the true story of popular music, the sound of the street and the town. My first physical contact with salsa was back in 1974 in a live performance by the Fania all star that brought together the best exponents of salsa of those times, musicians such as Rubén Blades, Johny Pacheco, Larry Harlow, Héctor Lavoe to name a few, I also remember that there were many hours of bestial sound at that time, a song lasted more than 10 minutes between the presentation of the orchestra, the improvisations and soneos of the singers who were at the command of the night, of those legends many have died, others continue to kill their tigers in private presentations and live on nostalgia and memories, for which I invite you to follow me to add sauce to the community. My respect to all the musicians and singers who live on this platform.

Saludos a los amigos de full deportes, hoy con otra entrega del pódcast Sr. béisbol. Quiero darle las gracias a la revista lo mejor de la semana por incluirme juntos a: @miguelaag, @nutrigamer, @aventurerasbike, @gabrieladifazio, @yusmi, @rafamar, @vanessacala en los más destacados de la semana un honor y compromiso para seguir creando contenido de calidad mis felicitaciones a todos.

>Greetings to the friends of full sports, today with another installment of the Mr. Baseball podcast. I want to thank the best of the week magazine for including me together: @miguelaag, @nutrigamer, @aventurerasbike, @gabrieladifazio, @yusmi, @rafamar, @vanessacala in the highlights of the week, an honor and commitment to continue creating quality content my congratulations to all.

>Before entering the Venezuela / United States game to be played tomorrow Saturday 03/18 at 7 pm Venezuela time, I would like to quickly refer to the performance of the Dominican Republic, which for many was not what was expected, labeling it a failure, they were the favorite of the group and solid candidate to be the champion, although it is true that there were elite names from the big leagues, a lineup in the best style of the indestructibles, but in baseball, games are won on the field, it is not the names but the men.

>Dominican left with more pain than glory, they won two games but who? To Nicaragua and Israel, who made their debut in the World Cup, two teams well below the level of the group, it should be noted that Nicaragua leaves a very good impression for their first time in these World Cups. There will be many questions and analysis of what happened, and some are saying that it was the manager's unwise decisions in some key plays or at-bats, or worse that there were differences between the players and the board, in short, the fact is that they stayed in the way with many without flavors.

>When the World Cup started and the groups were announced, we had high expectations with the Venezuelan team and the names that were going to make up the roster. Once they came to light, we saw major league players with enough credentials to play a good role in the World Cup. but we were still hesitating because in the previous World Cups they brought together the best of the best and we were left with the taste, however, we were enthusiastic and decided again to support the team against all odds and we were not the favorites by the sports press.

>We knew that we were stuck in a shirt of eleven yards in the so-called group of death where there was nothing more and nothing less than the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico, champion and runner-up in other World Cups. In some way, the frequent interviews with manager Omar López by the media It filled us with hope and gave us a breath to start walking a path that is not easy.

>The first game against the Dominican Republic came, it could not have been against Nicaragua or Israel to warm up the engines, but to be hanging on it was better to fall once and for all, so the saying goes and I am sure that many of us doubted that we could beat the Dominicans, including me, but the little miracle happened and we beat him with a great display of pitching and batting, new protagonists appeared on the scene such as Anthony Santander, Pablo López, Luis García, David Peralta. Venezuela began to believe in its red wine as well as a carbon copy, we beat Puerto Rico, Nicaragua and Israel, remaining undefeated in the group and like the phoenix took flight towards the quarterfinals to face the strong team of the United States , but Venezuela does not believe in anyone and comes like an avalanche of snow loaded with inspiration, motivation, positive energy with only one goal: the champion's cup.

El éxito no se logra solo con cualidades especiales. Es sobre todo un trabajo de constancia, de método y de organización. Victor Hugo

>The statistics give us advantages in pitching with the second best effectiveness of the tournament, in the other departments we are face to face, as we know the numbers are referential to put together a strategy the real game is on the field and against the United States we cannot Hesitating cannot be given space, we have to attack from the first inning as we did against Dominacana and Puerto Rico, yes it is true that they have a roster of superstars, but ours are too, tomorrow's game we must see it like any other game in the major league regular season, anything can happen, a mistake, a bad base run, the winning team will be the one that does the little things, without further ado the stage is set for Venezuela to shine, the starting pitchers have not yet been announced nor the lineup what we do know is that it will be a game of life or death. Thanks in advance for your comment. Until a next contact.

Success is not achieved only with special qualities. It is above all a work of constancy, method and organization. Victor hugo

Saludos amigos de full deporté, bienvenido a otra entrega del Podcast Sr. Béisbol. Qué gusto me da ver a todos esos muchachos alineados en la raya de cal con el nombre del país en el pecho esperando la voz de play para darlo todo, es lo máximo. Cuando vemos a esos caballos en el terreno de juego, dando jonrones, haciendo jugadas espectaculares, siendo aclamado y admirados por miles de fanáticos con contratos millonarios, lujosos carros, grandes mansiones, el sueño fue cumplido.

Pero no toda su vida ha sido llena de comodidades, han tenido que pasar hambre, esperar que le regalaran un guante o unos zapatos para poder jugar y llegar a cumplir ese sueño. En Venezuela y república Dominicana el béisbol es parte de la idiosincrasia de los chamos, desde pequeño ya comienzan a jugar pelota de goma improvisando un guante hecho con cartones leche y una pelota hecha con una media rellena de retazos de tela y las bases de cualquier material de desecho.

Por lo general son muchachos de barriadas que solo piensan en jugar béisbol para salir de la pobreza, cambian el aula de clases por un campo de béisbol, un lápiz por un bate, pero lo que no saben que es más fácil ser médico o ingeniero que pelotero profesional y más grandes ligas, la travesía es muy complicada y de mucho trabajo y esfuerzo, muchos de los peloteros que hoy están representando Venezuela tienen una historia que contar por ejemplo Salvador Pérez cuenta que vivían en una casa de bajareque (Hecha con barro)su mamá planchaba y limpiaba casa mientras él iba a la escuela en la mañana, en la tarde lo llevaba a practicar a una escuelita de béisbol de esas tantas que hay por toda Venezuela algunas veces trabajaba de colector en las camionetas por puesto para llevar algo de plata a su casa para ayudar a su mamá y hermanitos.

Es la historia de muchos que hoy son grandes ligas. Voy a contarle dos historias que viví muy de cerca una con Melvin Mora hoy salón de la fama de los Orioles de Baltimore en ese entonces yo trabajaba con el circuito de los navegantes del Magallanes y llegaron los scout de los Astros de Houston a firmar a Richard Hidalgo el mejor prospecto de ese momento estábamos en la oficina del gerente deportivo y entra un negrito flaco no más de 18 años y prácticamente suplica que le den la oportunidad que lo vieran los scout que él estaba listo para firmar me llamo la atención la seguridad con que lo dijo y pregunte que si tenía condiciones y el gerente me dice que sí, pero todavía faltaba pulir algunas cosas, salimos al terreno de juego porque iban a chequear a Richard Hidalgo, pero Melvin Mora aprovecho la oportunidad para lucirse y llamar la atención de los scout que lo vieron y negociaron una invitación a república dominicana a la liga de verano los demás es historia más de 10 temporadas en las grandes, Richard Hidalgo debuto, pero al poco tiempo fue dejado libre.

La otra historia es de un pelotero que este año debuta con los Cardenales de San Luis, Moisés Gómez recuerdo que llegaba a mi academia a las 7 de la mañana y era el primero que estaba en la raya de cal estirándose siempre fue disciplinado y tenías unas condiciones que proyectaba a ser firmado y debutar en grandes ligas, el entrenamiento era hasta las 11 de la mañana, pero un día lo veo en las gradas todo pálido y me acerco y le pregunto que si había desayunado y me dijo que sí, pero yo intuía que era mentira lo obligo a que me enseñe que lo que había comido y cuando abre la vianda era puro arroz en ese momento se pone a llorar y me cuenta que su mamá no tiene trabajo y que lo poco que comen se lo da unos vecinos, se me partió el corazón, inmediatamente hable con los demás representante para ayudarlo y desde ese momento le llevaban el desayuno y almuerzo yo me encargaba de las proteínas a los dos años me llama dándome las gracias porque lo habían firmado.

Hoy me siento tan agradecido con la vida que me dio la oportunidad de formar parte de los sueños de estos muchachos durante 10 años, algunos no siguieron en el béisbol, se dedicaron a otras profesiones, pero a veces me los consigo en la calle y se me acercan con cariño a saludarme y compartimos recuerdos, y Anécdotas, como no querer a esa bola de 108 costuras llamada pelota. Sin más, se despide Sr. béisbol, agradecido por sus comentarios. Hasta un próximo juego.

**La confianza en sí mismo es el primer secreto del éxito. Raldh Waldo Emerson**
