00:00Hello, fanáticos. It's a pleasure to greet you once again on Latino Power,
00:04where you'll be up to date with everything that happens to Latinos at the Big Show.
00:08I'm Maricarmen Fariña, and I invite you to follow us on all of our social media
00:13and to enjoy this new edition with me.
00:16And it's time to talk about the most outstanding Latino rookies of 2024.
00:30A month and a half before the end of the regular round,
00:33we take a look at the most outstanding Latino rookies of the year.
00:37Some of them will be in the discussion to win the prize of the Grand Leagues,
00:41but they will have to close the whole train.
00:44Wilier Abreu.
00:46Of great value for manager Alex Cora.
00:49Abreu has done everything a little offensive.
00:52Of his 80 hits, 41 are extra bases.
00:56His 835 OPS is more than decent for a rookie.
01:00Luis Gil.
01:02The Dominican was an important part of the best moment of the Yankees in the campaign.
01:07Although he has had ups and downs,
01:10his 12 wins is the second highest figure in all the Grand Leagues.
01:15His month of May was extraordinary with 6-0 and 0.70 of effectiveness.
01:24Jackson Chourio.
01:26Along with Wilier Abreu, he leads almost all offensive departments among Latino rookies.
01:32That despite having a slow start to the season.
01:36His 15 horns, 17 steals, 53 removals and 58 scores look very good.
01:43Let's remember that between April and May he only hit for 193 on average.
01:48José Butó.
01:50Among all the rookie launchers of the Grand Leagues,
01:53the Venezuelan has only surpassed in effectiveness and whip by Paul Skins.
01:57The rivals hit him for 164, the lowest average among Latino rookies or not.
02:04A very useful arm for Carlos Mendoza.
02:08We cannot fail to mention the Cuban Andy Pagés-Güenzel Pérez,
02:12Elion Ramos and the power shown by Jonquensi Noel de Cleveland.
02:26Time to talk about the great José Altuve.
02:29His Houston stars are still in the lead towards the postseason after a really negative start.
02:37Altuve is still his thing, beating.
02:40He recently reached 10 seasons with 150 hits or more.
02:45An indescribable figure.
02:48Among the assets of the entire MLB, his 10 campaigns with 150 hits or more are top figures.
02:55He is followed by Paul Goldschmidt and Freddie Freeman with 9 hits each.
03:00Among the active Latinos, Manny Machado adds 8 campaigns and Francisco Lindor another 6 seasons.
03:06In general, the record is of Pete Rose, Trish Speaker and Ty Cobb with 18 hits each.
03:13Among the Latinos, Albert Pujols got 14 of those campaigns.
03:18And among the Venezuelans, Altuve is surpassed by Miguel Cabrera and Bob Abreu with 12,
03:23and matched with Omar Bisquel with 10 seasons with 150 hits or more.
03:29And as always in Latino Power, we bring you El Dato.
03:33What could Fernando Rodney, Zach Britton and Dennis Eckersley have in common with the Closer in Manuel Clase?
03:39In the middle of his great campaign, Clase can become the fourth member of an exclusive group.
03:45Rodney, Britton and Eckersley are the only ones with 40 or more saves and an efficiency below 1 in the same campaign.
03:53Clase has in 2024 37 saves and 0.64 efficiency.
03:59Rodney, 48 saves, 0.60 efficiency with Tampa Bay Royals in 2012.
04:06Britton, 47 saves, 0.54 efficiency with the Orioles in 2016.
04:14Eckersley, 48 saves, 0.61 efficiency with Oakland in 1990.
04:21Let's see, what do you think? Will he join the Closer of the Guardians?
04:25Well fans, it's time to pick up the bats for today's show.
04:29The invitation, as always, to follow us through all our social networks and stay tuned to our publications.
04:35I am Mari Carmen Fariña, it was a pleasure as always to share with you and see you very soon in another Latino Power.
