Cardinals, Mariners To Sign International Prospects

By Ben Nicholson-Smith | February 10, 2011 at 4:36pm CDT

The Cardinals and Mariners moved closer to six-figure deals with international prospects today. The Cardinals got approval from MLB for their deal with Venezuelan prospect Leobaldo Pina, according to Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch (on Twitter). The shortstop will receive a bonus worth $300K or so.

You may not have heard of Gabriel Guerrero, but you've heard of his uncle. The Mariners signed Vladimir Guerrero's nephew for $400K, according to Ben Badler of Baseball America. The 17-year-old Dominican is a "big-bodied right-handed hitter" with raw power. Badler writes that the prospect projects as a corner outfielder with a solid arm, just like Vlad.

    Raw power in Seattle will result in nothing but fly outs.

        Wow, one player. Care to check the all time hitters stats at Safeco? It’s a power hitters worst nightmare.

          A right handed power hitters nightmare sure. But it can be overcome if you have enough power. Vlad has that power and hopefully his nephew does too.

    So does this mean that Gabriel is the son of Wilton Guerrero (Vlad’s brother)??

    I read somewhere that Pina is 16 years old.

      That means he’s probably 34.
