Juan wished good luck to the opposing pitchers. There is a time and a place.
Juan Soto promised to bring good vibes to the San Diego Padres when he arrived at the park.
There's more to come after the acquisition of the young talent in the biggest deadline deal of all time.
A lineup currently anchored by All-Star hitter Manny Machado has added two new players. The star infielder is expected to come back from his wrist injury in a few weeks.
It's going to be great when that lineup hits the field. "It's going to be hard to go through and I wish good luck to the other pitchers."
A few hours later, the Padres were living up to their new look.
Brandon Drury, who was acquired in a deadline deal with the Reds, hit a grand slam in his first at-bat, and San Diego slammed Colorado 9-1 as the Padres won their third game in a row.
The sellout crowd gave the catcher a standing ovation when he ran out to his position in the first and then again when he came to the plate in the second.
It feels good." It makes me feel a lot of emotions. They cheered for me. We were given the energy to play hard.
The man walked on four pitches. The fifth player in the expansion era to hit a grand slam in his first plate appearance was Chris Drury, who did it in his first plate appearance with the Orioles.
Drury said that he was running onAdrenaline. The fans were amazing. I was running on pure excitement after my first at-bat. Excited to be here It was great for me.
After Wednesday's win, the Padres hold the NL's second wild-card spot, but are behind the Dodgers in the NL West.
He said before the game that he was happy Bell was included in the trade. Two people were flown to San Diego on a jet.
I didn't know I was going to be traded with someone else. "I was thinking by myself." When I realized I was going with Josh, I was more excited because I knew what kind of guy he was and what he brought to the table. I'm looking forward to sharing another club house with him.
The Nationals won their first World Series title in 2019, and then won the NL batting title the following year. He's in his second straight All-Star season, and now he and Bell have joined a team that vaulted to the top of the Eastern Conference.
All the conversations with the Padres general manager A.J. Preller and his new teammates have been, "Let's win, let's bring the good energy to the locker room and the stadium, just come here and try to win." In San Diego, I want to bring my experience from the World Series to you.
Since I saw the trade yesterday, I am going to do that. We want to make it all the way to the last team standing.
He believes he's joining a contender.
He said yes. The team has everything it needs to win a world series.
San Diego lost to the New York Yankees in the World Series in 1998.
He's under contract for two more years, but he's not thinking about anything after that.
He said he was thinking about winning. I'm here to bring the energy and the vibes that I need to win.
The team with the worst record in baseball has been able to make the playoffs.
"It feels great," he said. It feels great to be here." It's a great feeling to leave a team that doesn't have a chance to come here. It's a new beginning and I feel like I can give more.
We pour our hearts and souls into this game no matter where we are. To have a reason to show up a little earlier every day to get the work done that we need to get done is extra fuel in the fire. I'm excited to have a new job.
The two young men have known each other since they played in the Dominican Prospect League.
"That's my boy, my hometown boy," the man said. We've been playing since we were 15. The two of us are on the same team. It's insane.
