Cubs Sign Cuban Catcher

2/15 UPDATE:

The Cubs have signed 17-year old Cuban OF-3B Kevin Moreno to a minor league contract and he has been assigned to the AZL Cubs. Moreno says Kris Bryant is his favorite player, and the Cubs are his father's favorite MLB team.

Moreno was not selected to play on the Cuban 16U or 18U Junior National teams and he has not played in Serie Nacional (the Cuban major league), either, so not much is known about him.

Moreno is the second Cuban player signed by the Cubs during the 2017-18 International Signing Period (see ORIGINAL POST below).
