is this that Cuban kid? how long till he makes the majors?
Yes, a long time. he's 16
oh I see? is he one of the top Latino basrball talents?

He was the best INT FA pitcher available this year #9 overall in the class. Not sure why they needed to trade for $2.5 Mil in IFA money if he was going to sign for $600K unless they seriously overpaid some other kids.
Well in the one deal they got that promising young kid Luke Voit Voit is only 27 years old last year he was a rookie. The kid has serious pop in his bat. They were also strugling with the 40 man roster and the rule 5 draft look for more trades for international pool money or after the deadline some hard cuts.
Voit wasn't the target, he's a throw in.
Int'l $ and roster spots were the real objective (we have a lot of high end talent that needs Rule V protection), I just can't figure out why at that price. I would have expected him to get more than the $1.1 Mil that was initially reported. Then he signs for almost half of that? Makes no sense.

I know he was a throw in but I think he will turn into a good throw in!

The Yankees are trying to land the top intl CF overall in Victor Victor Mesa. This is his actual name by the way. It's said he will be eligible soon by MLB.
The kid is know as a true CF that can fly. He stole over 70 bases in one year. Power is still developing despite being 21. He has a younger brother less herald at 16 who will also be eligible soon.

Joey, here is a link from Sherman. nypost.com/2018/07/29/yankees-use-that-i...
Thanks, there must be another target or two or three out there. I don't think Int'l Money rolls over.
