He wrote (translated to English): “Season 2026… This season ended earlier than I would have liked, I had several goals for this year I was able to accomplish one was to return to the major leagues after many years, that my daughter saw me pitch in major leagues, pitch in Yankees stadium and receive the affection of the fans, but unfortunately I could not fulfill the most important that is to be healthy and be able to compete which is what I enjoy most, I now turn to support my teammates from a distance, and my mentality is in the best way to prepare for the 2027 season”
