MLBPipeline.com is reporting the following – retweeted by ESPN international baseball insider Jesse Sanchez:
Right away, I feel compelled to issue a couple of disclaimers…
- These kids aren’t signed yet – the next international signing period opens in July.. though I won’t discount the fact that Derian Cruz (pictured on right) is wearing a “Braves Baseball” shirt.
- These kids are still just 16 years old, and thus are probably 5-7 years away from getting a whiff at the majors (think Jose Peraza, who is ahead of schedule at the age of 21).
