[ESP/ENG] Más que una cantidad | Opinión
Y es que el comité de elección tomó muchas otras cosas más en cuenta, que a ciencia cierta eran muy válidas, demasiadas diría yo, pero con la costumbre que tenemos como fanáticos en ver y exigir que los elegidos ganen premios individuales, como un premio al jugador más valioso, guantes de oro, el galardón que se le acredita al mejor bateador por posición con un bate de plata, o el conseguir conquistar una Serie Mundial con su equipo, no nos permitieron verlas con una mayor claridad.
I remember very well the month of January of this year 2024, when the next members of the Hall of Fame are commonly elected each year, the highest step for an individual major league player, my opinion towards those 3 chosen in this opportunity, (Adrian Beltre, Todd Helton and Joe Mauer) was not very good, except for Adrian Beltre, who if I had clear that he was the best third baseman of his time, Todd Helton and Joe Mauer) was not very good, except for Adrian Beltre, who I was sure was the best third baseman of his era, but then I realized that even though his numbers were not as impressive as those of other players of the past, his choice was the right one.
And the election committee took many other things into account, which were certainly very valid, too many I would say, but with the habit we have as fans to see and demand that the chosen ones win individual awards, such as a most valuable player award, gold gloves, the award that is credited to the best hitter by position with a silver bat, or getting to win a World Series with his team, did not allow us to see them with greater clarity.

También fue el eterno sustituto de Andrés Galarraga en el año 97, para los que son de la década de los años 90' ese salto que se atrevió a dar el elenco de Colorado en su apuesta por él, se recordarán que fue bastante sonado, era sustituir a un jugador con todos los atributos ofensivos muy destacados como los de Galarraga, por un joven que en ese momento, era difícil determinar si era tan bueno como él. Pero fue la titularidad lo que lo llevó a que sus actuaciones, lo colocaran como el jugador más importante de los Rockies, tanto es así, que entre 1999 y 2004, su ofensiva se puso a la par de la de Alex Rodríguez.
The first base position is one of the most important positions in the infield, I have always compared it to the hot corner of third base because of its similarity to the fact that it is also located in a corner and its difficulty when it comes to the reaction of whoever covers it after a hit. This location of the field was very well covered by Todd Helton in 17 seasons with the Colorado Rokies, one of the aspects which were taken into account in his choice, that his entire career as a professional in MLB was with a single team.
He was also the eternal replacement of Andres Galarraga in the year 97, for what they are of the decade of the 90's that leap that dared to give the cast of Colorado in his bet for him, it will be remembered that it was quite sounded, was to replace a player with all the offensive attributes very outstanding as those of Galarraga, It was difficult to determine if he was as good as Galarraga, but it was the starting position that led him to become the most important player of the Rockies, so much so that between 1999 and 2004, his offense was on a par with Alex Rodriguez.
No se dejó seducir tampoco por los Yankees de Nueva York, equipo poderoso, económicamente hablando, y que estuvo detrás de él, otro punto muy bueno en su carrera, al ser un jugador que solamente prefirió jugar béisbol antes de cualquier ambición económica y deportiva en cuanto a premios. Una de las cosas que también destacó en su pasar por MLB, fue su poca frecuencia con el ponche, tuvo una alta efectividad de no poncharse, y lo hacía apenas unas 80 veces por temporada, razón por la cual quizás su consistencia con el promedio al bate y su poca cantidad de cuadrangulares para ser un bateador fuerte con apenas 143.
I have always said that the catcher should be the best hitter in a lineup, why? He sees a lot of pitches both as a hitter and catcher, for longer than others, and that makes him have a clearer idea of how many types of pitches the opposing pitcher has. That over the years hasn't held true much, and the catcher for the most part hasn't fared as well with the bat. The American Joe Mauer has totally broken with this, who not only had power with his bat, but won several batting titles, 3 to be exact, all with the Minnesota Twins in 15 seasons.
He was not seduced either by the New York Yankees, a powerful team economically speaking, and that was behind him, another very good point in his career, being a player who only preferred to play baseball before any economic and sporting ambition in terms of awards. One of the things that also stood out in his time in MLB, was his infrequency with the strikeout, he had a high effectiveness of not striking out, and he did it only about 80 times per season, reason why perhaps his consistency with the batting average and his low number of homers to be a strong hitter with only 143.
