The end of the 2021 Season of MLB arrived almost a week ago and gave way to free agency market, which promises to be one of the busiest in recent years. This time there are a couple of players Mexicans who are in free agent status facing the next campaign and that they would seek a new negotiation.
Joakim Soria and Sergio Romo are the Mexicans who are as free agents this off season as their contracts with the Toronto Blue Jays and Oakland Athletics, respectively, came to an end.
Soria came to the Canadian team under a one-year contract and an amount of $ 3,500,000 dollars, from the Arizona Diamondbacks, in a negotiation that was carried out already in the 2021 Season.
Romo, for his part, went on to become a free agent at the end of the recent season, as his one-year, $ 2,500,000 deal with the Oakland Athletics, with whom he signed last February, for one year and $ 2,500,000 also came to an end.
This pair of Mexican pitchers are the only natives of the ‘Aztec’ country who became free agents and who will seek a new negotiation for the 2022 MLB Season.

I joined ‘Al Bat’ in September 2020, starting a new work stage in which I always seek to give my best version, in addition to leaving a significant mark on the passage of women in an industry that is managed mainly by men. Degree in Communication Sciences and Techniques from the Inter-American University for Development (UNID), I am a specialist in sports journalism, writing and editing texts, I have three years of experience covering sports, especially baseball from the Mexican Baseball League (LMB ), Liga Mexicana del Pacífico (LMP) and MLB. I was an intern at the LMB Leones de Yucatán Baseball Club, with whom I attended the 2019 Rey Series. I have done work for social networks such as the coverage of the 2019-2020 edition of the LMP Final for ‘Con Las Bases Llenas’. I am constantly updated on social networks, SEO, Google positioning, writing, digital journalism, as well as the place of women in the sports industry. Originally from Mérida, Yucatán, my first approach to baseball was in a game of Lions of Yucatán, in the ‘Kukulcán Álamo’ Park, in 2015; and that changed my life completely. The ‘Melenudos’ are the team of my loves and the greatest passion I have in this sport. Although I dedicate myself to baseball most of the time, my sport, in the beginning, was (and still is) soccer. Real Madrid and Bayern Munich won my heart and fans from ‘minute one’ and I am fortunate to have already seen them play live. Clearly, I am a fan of Cristiano Ronaldo and Manuel Neuer.
