The Dodgers reached a six-year agreement with young Cuban right-hander Yaisel Sierra on Tuesday, according to multiple reports.
Sierra, 24, has worked mostly as a reliever in his native Cuba, but it's likely the Dodgers will at least attempt to make him a starting pitcher. He has not had the dominant run of success in the Cuban National Series as other imports to MLB have.
In 2014, his last season there, he pitched to a 6.10 ERA over 62 innings, striking out 55 and walking 31. His career ERA is 4.23 in exactly 300 innings. Last April, he ranked No.
