Many Teams Eyeing Gerardo Concepcion

By Ben Nicholson-Smith | January 23, 2012 at 3:15pm CDT

Cuban left-hander Gerardo Concepcion has been declared a free agent and is drawing interest from many MLB teams, Jesse Sanchez of MLB.com reports. The 18-year-old recently established residency in Mexico and was said to be close to declaring free agency last week.

The Rangers, Yankees, Cubs and White Sox have expressed the most interest in Concepcion, agent Jaime Torres said. The lefty worked out in front of Rangers personnel, including Nolan Ryan, in the Dominican Republic today. The Phillies, Giants, Blue Jays, Red Sox and Royals have also expressed interest.

Concepcion has an offer on the table and will likely sign within two weeks, according to his agent. He defected from Cuba last June while playing in the Netherlands.

    If he’s really 18 years old I’m surprised more teams aren’t interested in him.  Any info on height, weight, FB speed, ‘stuff’?

    Him being 18 sounds like a “misconcepcion.”

    That’s the best I can come up with.

    is there anything more hilarious than a bunch of nerds on a baseball forum making the same tired age jokes every time some kid tries to make a better life for himself by coming to america to play baseball? who are you people to judge? you WISH you had the chance to lie and have it result in millions of dollars.
