the “lost case” of the Yankees who resigns himself to thinking about the end

His story in the Bronx could end in those days. It was at the beginning of April, just a few hours after the Opening Game of the new Major League season and suddenly, leaving fans and specialists stunned, the New York Yankees tried to put an end to this plot.

The news burst into the Yankee universe in a thunderous way and at the very moment that Estevan Florial was designated for assignment, the memories of those 8 years flashed before our eyes like subtle flashes.

Before

They had signed him in 2015 and since his debut in the Dominican Summer Leaguethe Dominican, confirmed his status as a prominent power hitter throughout the dimension, compiling for a 313 average, with 7 home runs and 53 RBIs in 57 games.

Everyone was talking about Florial and in this sense, three years after his raid on the Bombarderos farms, Baseball America ranked him as the 38th prospect in the entire baseball circuit and, in turn, MLB Pipeline I put it at 44.

In that same harvest, he reached advanced class A and in general, Baseball-Reference reports that in 85 games, the native averaged 283, with 6 home runs and 35 RBIs.

Major League debut

His first opportunity in the Major Leagues came in 2020, during the harvest shortened by Covid 19 and although it was just one game and then another 11 in 2021, over time his trail would dissipate instantly upon colliding with the demands of the first level. .

Florial continued to massacre the pitching in the Minor Leagues, however by April 1, the date on which he was designated for assignment, in 30 games played in the Big Top he was averaging 185 with 1 home run and 3 RBIs.

Florial the renegade

Hours passed and the Caribbean had to return to Triple A and almost two months later, when the Yankees try to find their way in the season and with a record of 24-19 they refuse to touch the bottom of the East Division in the American League, when this happens, once again Florial returns to the media arena.

At the time of writing this text, in 26 comparisons with Scranton/ Wilkes- Barre, the Cuban cuts to 286/413/490, with 4 doubles, 2 triples and 4 home runs as extra-base hits, as well as 13 RBIs.

Like an eternal renegade, Estevan Florial clings to putting an end to his time in the Bronx and on the basis of facts, his numbers once again put him on the verge of an imminent promotion to the Major Leagues, now… will the Yankees trust again in the Dominican?
