MLB.com’s Pipeline has released a new article covering their ranking of the Top 50 international players available to sign with teams in the upcoming international signing period. That period, which opens on January 15th, is the period that previously began July 2 every year for international players that turn 16-years-old.
The reason this is notable for the Braves is because the prospect ranked #3 overall in the class, Jose Perdomo, has previously been linked to the Braves. While the Pipeline article doesn’t mention the Braves connection with Perdomo, they also don’t mention a team with any of the other players in the Top 50 either - which is a change from past years.
