MLB teams have been signing top international prospects since Monday, when a new class of players became available. Here are the latest signings from around MLB…
- The Royals signed Venezuelan third baseman Samir Duenez for $425K, Ben Badler of Baseball America reports. The 16-year-old bats left-handed and has projectable power, Badler writes.
- The Rockies signed Venezuelan left-hander Luis Guzman, Badler reports. The 16-year-old is a strike-thrower with a feel for secondary stuff, Badler adds.
LUIS GUZMAN? THE ACTOR??? (In voice of Doc)
he was awesome in Boogie Nights…good for him
mlbtr..
what would be really cool would be a look back at past international signings to see how they’ve developed and the ROI
At least Samir Duenez is easier to pronounce than Samir Naga….Naga….not going to work here anymore, anyway.
Duenez 4 MVP
