The waiter from Santiago Santiago Torres placeholder image would be very close to debuting with Federal Chiríqui belonging to the Panamanian Baseball League as reported by the Pelota Cubana site on its social networks. The Panamanian team would already be in negotiations with the Antillean player to have him on their payroll in the near future.

Santiago, who is currently considered the island’s greatest prospect in his position, would also be a good addition to the canal team led by the experienced Pinar del Río Alfonso Urquiola.

The player was a key piece for Eriberto Rosales’ squad to advance to the postseason of the 60th National Baseball Series by developing his best offensive season with a .363 average while his line was fixed at (.466OBP / .613SLU / 1.079OPS ) in addition to getting 13 home runs and 56 RBIs, with which he managed to exceed 100 RBIs for life.

The only 26-year-old managed to be among the first in multiple offensive departments: leader in runs scored (81), second in hits (106), leader in triples (9), second in total bases (184), sixth in bases stolen (12), tenth in batting average, third in slugging percentage and fourth in OPS but despite his work he was unable to join the Cuba team that participated in the Pre-Olympic held in Florida.

Torres Baena, for his part, was a member of the national team that participated in the third Caribbean Cup in Curaçao in which he was once again one of the highlights with the wood, firing seven hits in 17 times at bat, achieving an extraordinary offensive line (.524OBP /. 824SLU / 1,348OPS).

The player in the same way could be a spark plug for the offense as the first tree of the Panamanian squad if he signed for Chiríqui, in addition to having a great opportunity to play in a Caribbean Series since Panama played as a guest in Santo Domingo 2023.
