  • What Happened to Miguel Sano? One the brightest prospects in all of baseball coming out of the Dominican Republic; Sano was a future superstar in MLB. From his incredible rookie season of 2015, the Home Run Derby Finals run in 2017, and the near 500 foot home runs Miguel Sano was a beast in Minnesota... Until everything changed.
    Seemingly overnight Sano was left without a team and a Free Agent after numerous injuries and a inexplicable fall in performance. Now he looks to resurrect his career in Los Angeles with the now Shohei Ohtani-less Angels.
    Documenting the rise and fall of one of baseball's most hyped up talents in decades: Miguel Sano

    Miguel sano was a guy I ALWAYS traded for in franchise mode. I always just mashed with him. One time I had 49 HR with him when he only played ~90 games.

    That ballistic missile of a home run he hit over the billboard on top of the green monster in 2021 is the most impressive thing I have ever seen on a baseball field.

    I really got into baseball at the start of the 2019 season, so I had no idea Sano had this sort of reputation early on his career and I just thought he fell off after a really good season that year. I heard of Profar also having similar hype as a prospect and not being able to deliever, but this was really insightful to see him regarded this highly and how skinny he was in the past. Very cool mini-documentary. Hope he cracks the roster as an Angel and succeeds!

    His massive weight gain early in his career told me everything about how seirous he took the game, if anyone ever watched his documentary on him back when he was in the DR as a teen he had the perfect baseball body at that time ....once he got that signing bonus and got to the U.S. he just ballooned in weight , i thought he was going to be a 5 tool player when i saw his documentary and then he just became a lazy one tool player by not caring

  • @outsidethewaxbox
    @outsidethewaxbox Před 4 měsíci

    Perhaps I missed it, but I didn’t hear anything regarding Sano’s alleged SA incident. At the end of the day, the MLB didn’t punish him, but the allegations were certainly plausible and based on my (admittedly little) personal knowledge of the accuser, she was absolutely credible and lost a lot more than he did by coming forward.

    He just played in the Dominican winter league, he couldn’t hit a basketball pitched at him, it’s sad to see how fast he has declined. I don’t the decline has anything to do with age, more than the lack of accountable work ethic.

    Only watchable on x1.5 speed. Also, this is incredibly surface level. The sexual assault accusations at end of 2017 are also part of his downfall story. As you did cover in your video, 2018 was when things started going downhill - but you didn't cover any of the reasons

    Fell from what? Hitting .264 (by far his best) back in 2017? Strikes out a ton, missed a lot of time (135 games in 2021, by far his most) so-so fielder, hit 30 HR’s twice (like wow) and was 2-for-19 in two Playoff appearances. I suppose his WAR is better than Reggie Jackson’s? 🙄
