José Altuve CHALLENGED a Houston pitcher in the World Classic – SwingCompleto

By Guillermo Sanchez

Houston Astros organized today, Saturday, January 21, the well-known fanfest at Minute Maid Park, an event that marks the start of the season for the reigning World Series champions. This is a space where fans have the opportunity to share with the club’s players.

At the festival, Los Astros would arrive hand in hand with 17 players, including the signing of the offseason, the Cuban José Abreu. In addition to Yordan Álvarez, Alex Bregman, Lance McCullers Jr., Jeremy Peña, Bryan Abreu and prospect Hunter Brown. David Hensley, Korey Lee, Seth Martinez, JJ Matijevic, Parker Mushinski, Joe Pérez, Blake Taylor and José Urquidy will also be present. I have left you from last to two stars: jose altuve Y ryan pressley.

Precisely this pair experienced a particular situation in the meeting. Mark Berman, sports director of FOX, interviewed Altuve and asked him about the possible meeting between his and his teammate in the upcoming World Baseball Classic, to which the Venezuelan replied with a laugh: “It will be fun. I’m looking forward to it. Obviously we have a great relationship, good chemistry, but I think if he throws me again, I’ll hit him.”.

Jose Altuve on potentially facing Ryan Pressly in the WBC: “It’ll be fun. Looking forward to it. We obviously have a great relationship, good chemistry, but I think if he pitches to me again I’ll hit him.” https://t.co/SjNo5rpTLm

Let’s remember that the tournament that brings together the best teams on the planet at the baseball level begins next March. A clash between the teams of Venezuela and the United States is very likely because both are favorites to qualify for the next round, a key that would face the leaders of Group C (Pool of the United States) and Group D (Pool of Venezuela).

I leave you two questions, in a hypothetical confrontation between the two: Will Altuve or Pressly win? Will Venezuela or the United States win?

May the best man win, but let them shout Play Ball!
