The 2018-19 international signing period begins today, and the Dodgers have added to their farm system.
They are no longer under restriction from their spending spree of 2015-16 — when they spent more than $90 million (taxes included) to acquire the likes of Yadier Alvarez ($16 million), Yusniel Diaz ($15.5 million), Omar Estevez ($6 million), Starling Heredia ($2.6 million), Ronny Brito ($2 million) and Yordan Alvarez ($2 million, who was traded to the Astros for Josh Fields at the 2016 trade deadline).
