Un momento familiar en el diamante de béisbol profesional.
WEST PALM BEACH, Florida – El jardín derecho en el CACTI Ballpark de Palm Beaches fue testigo de un encuentro especial. En el clubhouse opuesto,Juan Soto se preparaba para el juego.
Los hermanos dominicanos Soto, Juan, la superestrella de 26 años, y Elián, el prospecto de 19 años, vieron acción en el mismo juego de pretemporada de las Grandes Ligas por primera vez el jueves por la noche.
Fue genial verlo,
dijo Juan Soto, reflexionando sobre el momento.
Juan viajó con los Mets desde Port St. Lucie, Florida, para el juego en la ruta, preparándose para jugar juegos consecutivos de nueve entradas. Elián fue un llamado de ligas menores para el juego de exhibición.
He estado anhelando este momento desde que era un niño,
dijo elián Soto. Y espero hacerlo desde el principio.
Después del paso de Juan por la organización durante siete años, que terminó en un intercambio masivo a los Padres en 2022, Elián firmó con Washington como agente libre internacional en 2023. Juan y su familia acompañaron a Elián al complejo de entrenamiento de los Nacionales en West Palm Beach para la firma oficial. Mets y Nacionales están a solo 50 millas de distancia, lo que convierte a estos equipos en oponentes frecuentes en la Liga de la Toronja.
Esta primavera, ambos viven juntos en una casa compartida, donde, naturalmente, pasan mucho tiempo hablando de béisbol. A principios de esta semana, Juan aprovechó su día libre para ir al complejo de los Nacionales y ver a Elián entrenando en el jardín. En el pasado,se ha tomado un tiempo para ver a elián jugar en la liga instruccional. Pero es relativamente raro que pueda ver a su hermano en juegos competitivos.
Es divertido, porque podemos compartir opiniones después de un largo día,
dijo Juan sobre Elián. Es un muchacho tremendo. quiere estar aprendiendo constantemente sobre el juego y cómo van a ir las cosas. Y está aprendiendo sobre la organización. He estado tratando de hablar con él. Sé que la organización ha cambiado mucho. Ahora, es una sensación diferente, un ambiente diferente allí. pero estoy muy feliz por él.
Elián Soto entra al juego por los Nacionales vistiendo el No.22.
A Elián le dijeron el miércoles que sería llamado para el juego del jueves, la ansiedad se apoderó de él.Encontró una solución para superarla: irse a dormir temprano a las 9:30 pm.
Pensé, ‘Tengo que dormir porque necesito que el día pase lo más rápido posible,
dijo Elián con una sonrisa.
Juan jugó cinco entradas el jueves, luego vio el resto desde la parte superior de los escalones del dugout de los Mets, manteniendo un ojo en el juego mientras firmaba autógrafos para los fanáticos. Elián, quien jugó en la Florida Complex League la temporada pasada, entró como sustituto en el jardín izquierdo en la novena entrada para su primera presentación en un juego de pretemporada de su carrera. Elián,quien batea a la zurda,se ponchó con cuenta completa contra el derecho Tyler Zuber.
Después del juego, los Soto se encontraron en el campo para un breve abrazo.
Recordaré ir al jardín izquierdo, correr allí y sentir lo que mi hermano probablemente sintió cuando fue a su primer juego,
dijo Elián, agregando: Verlo desde el mismo campo, jugando en el mismo campo es algo de lo que estamos hablando en la temporada baja y cuando estamos solos en casa. Hablamos mucho sobre eso y trabajamos para ello.
Aunque Elián aún no ha hecho su debut en la temporada completa, Juan tiene un contrato a largo plazo. Es muy posible que los hermanos algún día jueguen uno contra el otro en un juego con implicaciones reales.
No veo la hora,
dijo Juan. Hemos estado trabajando duro, esforzándonos mucho. Trabajé con él este invierno. Después de que llegó y bateó .180 en la liga de novatos, tuvo un invierno difícil, así que trabajamos mucho. Realmente luchó y partió su alma todos los días, sin descanso. Así que estoy muy feliz de verlo y lo que hará esta temporada.

West Palm beach, Florida — At the Cotti Ballpark of Palm Beaches, a gardener
sported a Nationals red shirt with Soto’s number 22, while Juan Soto
prepared for the game with the Mets.
The Soto brothers, Juan, the 26-year-old Mets superstar, and Elián, the
19-year-old Nationals prospect, shared the field in a Major League
pre-season game for the first time Thursday night.
It’s great to see and listen to different opinions, what people think
said Juan Soto.
about their swing and all that kind of thing,
It was great to see him.
Juan traveled with the Mets from Port St. Lucie, Florida, for the game,
preparing to play consecutive nine-inning games. elián was called up from
the minor leagues for the exhibition.
I’m craving this moment since I was a child,
said Elián Soto.
And I hope to do it again.
After Juan’s seven years with the Nationals, which ended with a trade to
the Padres in 2022, Elián signed with Washington as an international free
agent in 2023. Juan and his family accompanied Elián to the Nationals’
training complex in West Palm Beach for the signing.
Nearly two years later, Juan signed a 15-year, $765 million free agent
contract with the Mets, placing him in the same division as his younger
brother and in the same spring training region. The Mets’ and Nationals’
complexes are only 50 miles apart, making them frequent Grapefruit league
opponents.
This spring, the two are living together, spending much time discussing
baseball. Earlier in the week, Juan visited the nationals’ complex to
watch Elián train. he has also watched Elián play in the instructional
league. However, seeing his brother in competitive games is rare.
It’s fun because we can share opinions after a long day,
Juan said
about living with Elián.
He is a tremendous boy. He wants to be learning constantly about the
game and how things are going to go. And he is learning about the
organization.
I have been trying to talk to Him
March 21, 2025
The atmosphere surrounding the organization feels different, according to one of the players. Now, it is indeed a different sensation, a different environment there. But I am very happy for it.
When one of the brothers learned he would be playing in Thursday’s game, he felt anxiety. His solution was to go to sleep early, around 9:30 p.m.
I thought, ‘I have to fall asleep because I need the day to spend as quickly as possible,
he said with a smile.
One brother watched part of the game from the dugout steps, signing autographs for fans. The other brother,who played at Florida Complex League last season,entered the game as a substitute in left field in the ninth inning,marking his first appearance in a preseason game. The left-handed batter struck out against a right-handed pitcher.
After the game,the brothers shared a brief hug on the field.
Going to the left garden, running there and feeling what my brother probably felt when he went to his first game,
one brother said.Seeing him from the same field,playing in the same field is something we are talking about in the low season and when we are alone at home. We talk a lot about that and work for it.
Thursday was not the first time the brothers have faced each other.
In January 2020, one brother threw a ball to the other, who responded with his signature move.Later, the second brother hit the ball to the opposite field and rounded the bases in party.
If the brothers continue on their current paths, they could have a meaningful future. One brother has a contract for 15 seasons.It is possible that the brothers could one day play against each other in a game with real implications.
I don’t see the time,
one brother said. We have been working hard, trying a lot. I worked with him this winter… he had a difficult winter,so we worked a lot. He really struggled and split his soul every day,without rest. So I am very happy to see him and what he will do this season.
