Dodgers announce deal for Japanese pitcher Roki Sasaki. Receives signing bonus of 6.5 million

by

LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers announced on Wednesday their agreement with sought-after Japanese pitcher Roki Sasaki by agreeing to a minor league contract with a signing bonus of $6.5 million. A 23-year-old right-hander with a fastball that tops 100 mph, Sasaki announced his intention to sign with the Dodgers on Friday and was introduced at a news conference Wednesday at Dodger Stadium. He joins Japanese stars Shohei Ohtani and Yoshinobu Yamamoto on the Dodgers after making a decision that had generated much expectation. Sasaki had until Thursday to finalize a contract. He was considered an international amateur under Major League Baseball rules because he is under 25 years old and does not have six years of service in Japan, which restricted him to the pool of international signings. The Dodgers started with an allocation of $5,146,200, but increased it to $8,102,800 with a pair of trades last week, acquiring $1.5 million from Cincinnati and $1,456,600 from Philadelphia. Los Angeles is contemplating using a six-starting rotation, which could ease Sasaki’s transition to the majors. The Dodgers are trying to become the first team to repeat as champion since the New York Yankees from 1998 to 2000. Sasaki was made available to major league teams for a 45-day period by the Chiba Lotte Marines of the Pacific League under the bidding agreement between Japan Professional Baseball and the majors. Because he is under 25 years old and does not have six years of Japanese league service time, Sasaki is considered an international amateur by MLB and is limited to a minor league contract subject to signing funds. The Marines will receive $1,625,000, 25% of Sasaki’s signing bonus amount. During a news conference at the winter meetings last month, Sasaki’s agent, Joel Wolfe, denied that a deal was already in place with the Dodgers. Wolfe said MLB had investigated. Sasaki went 10-5 with a 2.35 ERA in 18 games last year, striking out 129 batters in 111 innings during a season limited by shoulder inflammation. He went 7-4 with a 1.78 ERA in 15 starts in 2023, when he suffered an oblique injury. Over his career, he is 29-15 with a 2.10 ERA over four seasons with the Marines and pitched a perfect game against Orix in April 2022. Among international amateur free agents, Los Angeles also agreed to deals with Venezuelan infielders Luis Tovar ($397,500) and Moisés Acacio ($197,500), Panamanian left-handed pitcher Adrián Torres ($362,500) and Colombian shortstop Luis Luna ($137,500). .

Man City is on the brink of elimination from the Champions League after losing to PSG

by

PARIS — Manchester City are on the brink of a humiliating exit from the Champions League after a shock defeat to Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday, and Real Madrid are no longer at risk after sweeping Salzburg. Manchester City blew a two-goal lead in a high-stakes clash between underperforming millionaires that PSG won 4-2 in Paris, and could still be eliminated alongside the English champions after the final round of matches next week. Only the top 24 in the 36-team standings will advance and Manchester City, the 2023 champions, will start in 25th place needing to beat Club Brugge to enter the elimination round. PSG, now in 22nd place, will play at Stuttgart, which is in 24th place. Reigning champions Real Madrid are safe, rising from 22nd place at the start of Wednesday to 16th place after thrashing Salzburg 5-1. Arsenal and Inter Milan earned expected wins to move up to third and fourth place respectively, although they are still unsure of joining Liverpool and Barcelona in advancing directly to the round of 16. Arsenal beat Dinamo Zagreb 3-0 and Inter won 1-0 at Sparta Prague. Bayern Munich was defeated 3-0 at Feyenoord, with a pair of goals from the Mexican Santi Giménez, and dropped to 15th place in the mid-table tangle of historic clubs—including Madrid and Juventus—that run the risk of facing each other in the elimination rounds in February. Every question of qualification and elimination will be decided in a likely frantic eighth and final round of matches next Wednesday. All 36 teams will be in action in 18 matches that will begin at the same time, with only the first 24 advancing to the elimination phase. Manchester City looked set to bring PSG closer to elimination by taking a two-goal lead early in the second half. Jack Grealish, a half-time substitute, scored in the 50th minute and then set up Erling Haaland for a second four minutes later. Within six remarkable minutes, PSG were level, with goals from Ousmane Dembele and Bradley Barcola, and a stunning comeback was completed in the 78th when Joao Neves headed the decisive goal. Goncalo Ramos added a fourth in stoppage time. AC Milan quietly climbed to sixth place with a 1-0 win against Girona at the San Siro, and Celtic advanced by winning 1-0 against Young Boys, who lost a seventh game in a row. Sporting Lisbon faces possible elimination next week after losing 2-1 to Leipzig, ending a six-match losing streak, and Shakhtar Donetsk stayed in contention – just barely – with a 2-0 win against the emerging Brest, which will be in the elimination phase. ___ This story was translated from English by an AP editor with the help of a generative artificial intelligence tool.

Aguirre sees the positive side of trying young people on the South American tour of Mexico

by

Before playing two games for South America, coach Javier Aguirre said that the result in both games would be the least important. The essential thing was to see the performance of the young players who received the opportunity in the absence of the usual starters who were not loaned by their clubs. In the matches against Internacional de Porto Alegre from Brazil and River Plate from Argentina, “Vasco” Aguire made 14 players debut with El Tri. One of them was Gilberto Mora, who became the youngest player to debut with the national team. The Tijuana midfielder is 16 years and three months old. Mexico defeated Inter 2-0 and then lost by the same score against River. “I leave with the feeling that the tour was worth it,” Aguirre said the day before. “You have to keep balance and draw conclusions. It’s good for me for the future. The objective of the tour was met. There are three or four players who really deserve a chance on the next occasions.” The veteran coach did not want to go into detail about who those players are who could fight for a place in the Nations League, where Mexico will have its next official match on March 20 against Canada. Who took advantage? Although he has few spotlights, recovery midfielder Elías Montiel is the next jewel of the Pachuca quarry and in both matches he showed why. At just 19 years old, the player became a starter for the Tuzos in the previous tournament and was one of the most outstanding in the last edition of the Intercontinental Cup. Aguirre summoned him for both matches and he was one of the few who repeated his lineup in both matches. The problem for Montiel is that in that position there is tough competition for ownership. Edson Álvarez (Fulham) and Luis Chávez (Dinamo Moscow), both with World Cup experience, usually occupy those positions. Luis Romo (Chivas) also fights for minutes. A similar case is that of Jorge Ruvalcaba, who excelled with a goal and several dangerous attempts against the Brazilians. The Pumas winger, with experience in Europe with Standard de Lieja, moves along the left wing, a sector where Julián Quiñones, Alexis Vega, César Huerta and Hirving Lozano fight to be starters. Of the rest, goalkeeper Raúl Rangel, full-back Jesús Gallardo and forward Guillermo Martínez, the only ones previously mentioned by Aguirre, fulfilled what was expected and will surely continue to be regular in the calls. What’s next? In Aguirre’s original plan, in addition to playing games outside of friendly environments such as the fields of the United States, it was contemplated to carry out “mini-cycles” of training with players from the local league. That idea was presented and approved by then-high commissioner Juan Carlos Rodriguez, who resigned from his position in December. After the little support shown by the clubs to release players for the South American tour, it is unlikely that they will want to release them for training sessions originally scheduled from Monday to Wednesday. If nothing changes, Aguirre will have to wait until mid-March to have a full team again before facing Canada in the Nations League.

Vinicius returns to play in the Champions League, accompanying on the left a Mbappe in a state of grace and a Rodrygo that he would return to the right wing ‘pushed’ by his compatriot. Brahim would be Carletto’s great asset on the bench for this match. Confirmed lineups Real Madrid: Courtois Valverde, Asencio, Rüdiger, F. Mendy; Ceballos, Modric, Bellingham; Rodrygo, Mbappé and Vinicius. Red Bull Salzburg: Blaswich; Dedic, Baldoo, Blank, Terzic; Yeo, Capaldo, Bidstrup, Gloukh; Daghim and Nene.
