A new month of the season begins in the MLB, and we see how the Cleveland Guardians team continue in the fight to conquer the top of the "Central" division of the American League, much was said and continues to be said about this ninth, about his lack of consistency and experience, and they are still in contention, just one game behind the leading Minnesota Twins and above the Chicago White Sox who were going to be the favorite on this side of the league after his performance the previous season.

EL DESEO DE JUGAR / THE DESIRE TO PLAY

That desire to play good baseball for the Cleveland Guardians team seems to come from the Dominican player Jose Ramirez, the native of Yaguate since his beginnings has always displayed his skills on the diamond in this sport, his talent was seen for the first time in the 2016 season, when thanks to their performances and with the help of their teammates they reached the World Series, this being proof that we were at the gates of a player who, in addition to his talent, has a desire to play baseball.

Jose Ramírez is a very versatile player, in fact his original position is second base, but he does it so well where he currently plays, that manager Terry Francona has used him permanently at third base, he is easy to access and the only thing he has shown on the pitch is good defense and timely hitting, as well as power, accumulating several seasons with an average of more than 20 homers.

His performance in that 2016 season where he arrived with his team until the fall classic, earned him the Cleveland team to take him more into account in their future project and hire him for several years, ensuring his talent with the organization. of Ohio thus guaranteeing a good game for the team to aspire to more in the following seasons.

This 2022 season has not been the exception, his numbers are in line with what he has achieved in previous seasons, maintaining the usual rhythm and helping his team achieve the necessary victories to stay in contention, very, very close to the top. In particular, I think that the Cleveland team will be the one to keep this position, and this is thanks in large part to Jose Ramirez.

Perhaps his 288-point batting average is not so striking, but the 21 home runs and 84 RBIs in 372 at-bats, in a total of 97 games played, do seem to be relevant to his team's 52-49 record, performance that despite being very collective, where everyone contributes their grain of sand, he represents the cornerstone of the ninth of the center of this North American country that is on the right track no matter what they say.
