Tarik Skubal accelerates his recovery and is already regaining velocity after elbow surgery<\/a><\/p>\nThe organization confirmed this Thursday the hiring of the former shortstop and winner of the American League Most Valuable Player award in 2002, betting on his experience and leadership to lead a new stage of the Sonoran team.<\/p>\n
Tejada will arrive in Navojoa after being active as a manager in Mexican summer baseball with the Bravos de Le\u00f3n, a team that is currently fighting in the top positions of the standings with a positive record of 17 wins and 13 losses.<\/p>\n
The Dominican continues to consolidate his career as a manager after several experiences in different leagues. During the past winter, he managed the Karachi Monarchs in a Middle Eastern league, while previously he was in charge of the \u00c1guilas Cibae\u00f1as in Dominican professional baseball.<\/p>\n
Tejada’s arrival comes at a key moment for the Mayos franchise, which will officially return to Navojoa after playing last season under the name Tucson Baseball Team and without a fixed venue.<\/p>\n
The directive expects the return to southern Sonora to mark the beginning of a new competitive stage for the organization, now headed by one of the most recognized figures in Latin American baseball.<\/p>\n
With this move, the Mayos seek to strengthen their sports project and regain prominence within the Mexican winter circuit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
